Getafe
Football Club

Based in Getafe in the Community of Madrid, they are undoubtedly one of the most curious and characterful teams in all of Spanish football. Referred to as Azulones or the Deep Blue Ones, on account of the strip they were, the team was formed in 1946 but folded not long after before being resurrected in 1986.

They are noteworthy and enjoy a lot of respect from fans and non-fans alike because of their constant fight to survive, which has resulted in some of the most incredible do-or-die style football. While they may lack the style and finesse of teams like their local rivals Atletico Madrid, no one can call into question their tenacity. After spending the first 20 years of their professional career in the lower tiers of Spanish football, they finally had a solid foothold in La Liga during the 2000s. If you want to watch a game of football with a lot of soul, a visit to their home ground of Estadio Coliseum Alfonso Perez will provide it.
