The additional three points are very important for Real Madrid in order to maintain competition at the top of the standings. Ancelotti must be able to increase Real Madrid goal productivity to reach the top position. Girona has been very surprising this season, his performance has been truly unexpected. So far, only Real Madrid and Barcelona have managed to sit in first place, but this time Girona managed to surpass the points collected by Real Madrid and Barcelona.
I don't think Girona will fight for the title. Girona may be playing very well right now, top of the points table. But it is very difficult to maintain such consistency until the end of the season. It won't be possible for a team like Girona. Perhaps in the next few weeks we will start to see the deterioration of Girona.
Girona won't fight for the title but the club has a target to stay at the top position this season. Girona is doing its job perfectly since the first week but the consistency is what club looking for. In fact, girona was always become inconsistent when it was entering the mid - end of season. Girona is trying to perform better this season. Some new players were also contributing a lot to the club. Girona is trying to test its performance to compete with barcelona and real madrid at the top of positions but many people are also saying if girona will be going down again at mid - end of season.
Girona needs to learn a lot from manchester city which has been also a part of city ball group.
Real Madrid are trying to grab the top spot in the points table. They are only 1 point ahead of Barcelona. If you want to keep the top spot in the table, you have to win every match consistently. Barcelona team is strong. And so if Real Madrid can't maintain consistency, they won't be able to hold the top spot in the table. Madrid will not think about anything other than a win against Girona in the next match.
It will be so hard for madrid to pass it. I won't deny if madrid has very good record against girona but the current squad owned by girona looked like very strong. Real madrid must have maintained its consistency till the end of season.
The competition looked like very strict with another competitor was coming like girona. I hope that girona will able to become another manchester city.
