As Real Madrid rest players for UCL, Militao and Mendy make case to start at Man City as Camavinga injured

Marco Asensio scored as Real Madrid beat Getafe 1-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday, with the team's mind firmly on Wednesday's Champions League semifinal second leg at Manchester City.

The best chance of a quiet first half saw Getafe goalkeeper David Soria save well in a one-on-one with Federico Valverde, who was then flagged offside by the assistant referee.

After the break, Getafe forward Borja Mayoral headed over the bar and Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois kept out Juan Iglesias' long-range shot before Asensio put Madrid ahead from distance. Substitute Vinicius Junior thought he'd added a second, only for his goal to also be ruled offside.
