Rayo Vallecano 2-0 Getafe: Guerra and Miku secure huge win in survival scrap

Rayo Vallecano secured a potentially vital three points with a 2-0 win over fellow La Liga struggler Getafe on Friday.

Goals from Javi Guerra and Miku earned Rayo Vallecano a massive three points in the fight for La Liga survival as it overcame fellow struggler Getafe 2-0.

Rayo came into Friday's clash at Vallecas in 16th, two places above its opponents and level on points, but goals in each half gave the club a measure of breathing space and ended a seven-match winless run.

Guerra bundled the ball home from close range in the 15th minute, although Rayo saw substitute goalkeeper Yoel sent off following the celebrations.
