Barça fail to score and fail to win again: after the goalless draw with Girona, the result repeats at Getafe and two more points drift away from Camp Nou.
The table lead is unsettled. FC Barcelona, who had hosted Girona at the Camp Nou, were held to a scoreless draw, picking up two more points on the road this time at Getafe’s Colisée Alfonso Pérez on matchday 29 of La Liga. The Blaugrana produced a timid attacking display and could not break the deadlock, with Sergi Roberto sustaining an injury in the first half.

Getafe earned a point through a disciplined defensive display by Quique Sánchez Flores’s side, who packed the box and blocked the spaces the visitors sought to exploit. The clearest chances came from Raphinha and Balde in the first half, a sequence ending with two shots hitting the woodwork. Getafe’s best moment arrived late when Borja Mayoral forced a save from Ter Stegen, which he diverted wide. The locals will wait to see how Almería faires in their upcoming fixture, clinging to a point here.
