Getafe Vs. Real Madrid, La Liga 2012: Open Thread

The squad will have to survive without Kaká and Pepe, as Real Madrid takes on their first game of the season against. Getafe. José Mourinho decided to leave Pepe and Kaká out of the list for the second game in a row for different reasons. While Pepe will surely start against Barcelona this Wednesday, Kaká is looking for a way out to San Siro.

AC Milan lost in its first game of the season and Chairman Adriano Galliani had to leave the stadium five minutes before the referee concluded the game due to a crowd that demanded some reinforcements. The Brazilian playmaker could be one of them.

This is Real Madrid's starting XI -with Lass- for the match against Getafe:

Real Madrid starting lineup: Casillas, Arbeloa, Albiol, Ramos, Marcelo, Xabi Alonso, Lass, Di María, Özil, Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema.
