Lackluster Barca held at home by Getafe
Published in FilGoal on 06 - 04 - 2008

Fans were left frustrated at Nou Camp after Barcelona were held to a 0-0 Primera Liga draw against a resilient Getafe side.
The Catalans' title hopes became in clear doubt as they are seven points adrift of leaders Real Madrid, who have 66 points at the summit.
Barcelona already missed Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi, and Franck Rijkaard's surprising half-time substitution to Samuel Eto'o did not help much.
Even though Barca were unfortunate to be denied three times by the post, the home fans raised the white hankies in protest over the performance.
Michael Laudrup's Getafe, who have just recently recorded an impressive UEFA Cup draw at Bayern Munich, held firm to secure the point.
Sevilla see off Villarreal
Like Barca, Villarreal failed to close the gap on Real, losing 2-0 at Sevilla to level on 59 points with Los Cules.
Liga top scorer Luis Fabiano broke the deadlock in the 19th minute, as Frederic Kanoute concluded the victory with a late penalty.
Earlier on Sunday, Atletico Madrid rout nine-man Almeria 6-3 at Vicente Caldron, with Simao and Sergio Aguero both scoring twice.
