It's hard to believe that Girona was able to perform brilliantly until the seventh week. The interesting thing about Girona FC at the moment is that they are undefeated and the productivity of the goals they score. Even though they don't have world class players, they have successfully recorded 18 goals, this is truly an extraordinary achievement. Victory at home to Villarreal made them succeed at the top of the standings.
Everyone must be surprised with Girona performance, no one predicted this team to lead La Liga standings. Yep, they have no top players, they just have average players. Eric García, Daley Blind, Yangel Herrera, or Cristhian Stuani are actually world class players but they can't be categorized as top players. And the interesting fact, there is a rising player who is still 19 years old, named Sávio. This boy already contributed 4 assists so far. I'm sure there will be many clubs to monitor this boy.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid recovered after suffering defeat last week, even though they did not field a full squad, Ancelotti was very relieved by the achievements of his troops. The 2-0 victory over Las Palmas put them ahead of Barcelona again.
Ancelotti changed the tactic and he made a new combination in the starting lineup. Joselu and Brahim Díaz played as starters. This looked effectively, since these players contributed scoring goals in this match. I really hope that Real Madrid can play more offensively like today, Ancelotti can't rely on Bellingham only. He must consider Joselu and Brahim Díaz as machine goals as well.
