MADRID, Spain -- Striker Youssef El Arabi scored two goals and set up another to pace Granada in a wild 3-3 draw at Getafe in the Spanish league on Friday.

With Granada down to 10 men after Manuel Iturra was sent off, Angel Lafita put Getafe back ahead in the 72nd. But El Arabi headed in his second in the 77th from a deflected corner kick before Getafe lost Sergio Escudero to his second booking.dddddddddddd "We knew Getafe was on a tough run and would want to start strong," Riki said. "They did so by scoring early, but we played one of our best games on the road." Granada broke a run of five consecutive losses away from home to stay in the middle of the standings. Getafe remained in 16th place and inched two points clear of the relegation zone before the rest of teams play in round 28. "Before we lost these games, but today we at least salvaged a draw," said Getafes Lopez, referring to the effect on the team by the coaching change. "Still, it is a shame we couldnt take the three points. To get away from the bottom we cant make any mistakes." Real Madrid leads by three points over Atletico Madrid.
