Christantus Uche pulls the strings in ruthless Getafe masterclass
Away at Estadio José Zorrilla, the 21-year-old Super Eagles hopeful delivered his most influential performance of the season.
Christantus Uche, now 28 games into his campaign, tallied two superb assists and played a key role in a third goal as Getafe steamrolled to a 4-0 victory over a crumbling Valladolid side.
Just one minute in, Uche nodded a clever pass into Mauro Arambarri’s path, and the Uruguayan did the rest to put Getafe ahead.
Before Valladolid could regroup, the midfielder was at it again—this time feeding Ramon Terrats with a slick setup that led to a sharp volley for 2-0.
Two assists against Valladolid mark new high in breakout season
By the 30th minute, the home crowd had seen enough. Terrats struck again, and Mario Martín’s red card before the break sealed Valladolid’s misery.
Getafe added a fourth via Domingos Duarte in the second half, while Uche—despite losing the most duels in the match (9)—had already stamped his influence.
This outing raises Christantus Uche’s goal contributions to eight—five assists, three goals—and fuels the growing buzz around the young talent.
With two assists against Valladolid, he’s showing he’s more than just potential; he’s delivering when it matters and could be the next big thing.
