Once again Real Madrid is taking advantage on Barcelona's failure yesterday after the draw against Mallorca 2-2. Today, the white team scored first and didn't receive any goals because they understand how important this opportunity is and every point matters this season if they aim to reclaim the trophy of LaLiga and don’t waste it like they did last year.
Surprisingly, this time Girona leads the standings with six consecutive wins and only one draw match (first match against Real Sociedad) . I believe many of us may not have noticed their impressive results so it's not just a matter of chance I would guess they seem to perform well in the championship.
I haven't had the chance to watch any of their matches yet, but could you guys share some insights about this team? Or they will disappear from top standing in the next matches?
You are right, no one will ever think that Girona will ever top the table this season but it has happened already after they won Villarreal today in their away match. Barcelona is third on the table, this is because they drew their match yesterday.
Real Madrid is ahead of Barcelona again, even when they were managing their players due to lack of striker. Today's 2-0 victory gave them the second position on the table with just a point ahead of Barcelona and a point below Girona. The competition is getting tougher and who knows if there will be a surprise from Girona to their fans this season, if they continue with their
The more I watch Girona's performance, the more I am surprised. We usually see this team at the bottom of the points table. But now the team is at the top of the table. It is unexpected. This team is playing well. It's not just Girona playing well against weaker teams. Girona's performance against big teams is also very good. This season they are level on points with Real Sociedad. Earned full points against big teams like Sevilla and Villarreal.
I thought Girona would probably lose points against Villarreal, but Girona's performance in this match was very good. The team played very well. It was Villarreal's home match. Even then they could not dominate this match. A lot of attacking was done by Girona's players in this match and an excellent 2-1 win. The way Girona are performing, I think this team will be in the top four of the table.
