The second consecutive defeat of Real Madrid in La Liga has generated strong discontent among the fans of the Spanish giant. Right at halftime of the match against Getafe (0-1), the crowd at Santiago Bernabéu whistled the players. The fans' irritation escalated in the second half, marked by the ineffectiveness of the merengues, who failed to respond to the deficit, confirming the defeat, which leaves the team four points behind leaders Barcelona. After the final whistle, some fans shouted 'Florentino – resign!', calling for the departure of the club's president, Florentino Pérez. All players of the Spanish capital club, except for Thibaut Courtois, went directly to the locker rooms — the Belgian goalkeeper was the only one to approach the fans and apologize for the result. The players coached by Álvaro Arbeloa also reportedly refused to make statements to journalists.
