Falcao - Scores off bench in debut Falcao scored a goal off two shots (one on target) after coming off the bench during Saturday's 3-0 win over Getafe.

Impact Falcao made his Rayo debut, being brought off the bench in the 71st minute, replacing Randy Nteka. And it took only 10 minutes for the striker to open his scoring account as he beat the goalkeeper with a powerful right-footed shot after picking up a beautiful through pass. It's still to be known when Falcao will become a starter, but goal makes even more possible that he'll be in the lineup for Tuesday's visit to Athletic Bilbao.

Impact Ciss had a decent game on the defensive end, but once again his biggest contributions came on offense, as he double his side's lead in the 78th minute and then, three minutes later, assisted Radamel Falcao for the goal that sealed the 3-0 win.

The goalkeeper will have a much tougher challange during Tuesday's visit to Athletic Bilbao.

Impact Falcao hasn't been named a starter just yet, but it won't be much longer before he's able to contribute to his new club. When that happens, Randy Nteka will have more competition for starting opportunities with both Falcao and Sergi Guardiola.

Falcao - Out against Levante Falcao will miss Saturday's match at Levante after returning from international duty with little time to train with his teammates, according to manager Andoni Iraola via Union Rayo...

Impact Falcao was expected to miss this game already after getting called up to the Colombian national team but it was always likely he was going to be given more time to train once he arrived in Madrid. This should mean that Randy Nteka will get the start over the weekend, though things should get more interesting after the arrival of Sergi as well.

Falcao - Unlikely for Levante match Falcao isn't expected to be ready for Saturday's match at Levante after playing for Colombia during the international window, according to Union Rayo.

Impact Falcao will need extra time to settle in with his new club, so his chances of debuting this weekend are lower. He'll compete with Randy Nteka for minutes as the starting striker, though it will be interesting to see how the veteran Falcao compares to Nteka, who just made his step up from the second division.
