That is what most people were saying about Girona when the La Liga League started. They have played 17 matches in La Liga and Girona is leading with 2 points ahead. Never underestimate Girona because they don't have experience players that can help them win the La Liga trophy this season.
Girona really impresses game after game, really beautiful games. They are Real Madrid's serious competitors to win La Liga, and Real Madrid should not take this lightly. With the game like now, it feels very difficult for other teams to beat, unless they meet Real Madrid, Barcelona and ATM again in the second match, they could lose points.
I remain confident that this season Real Madrid will become La Liga champions, a difference of two points is very easy for Real Madrid to overcome. Girona will be in second or third place at the end of the season. Even so, Girona should be proud of their hard work to be able to qualify for the UCL League next season.
I also still doubt that Girona will be able to win the title this season. I also still believe that Real Madrid will finally win the title this season. Last season Real Madrid failed and Barcelona performed impressively in Laliga last season. But this season is different. What we didn't expect at all was to see Girona at the top of the standings. Even though they only lead by a small margin, they still deserve a lot of appreciation. Because the depth of their squad is not as good as that of other strong teams in Laliga.
If they ultimately fail to win the title this season then it will be understandable to everyone. But if it turns out that Girona can continue to stay at the top until the end of the season then I think that will be the biggest surprise that rarely happens in Laliga.
In the next two days, Girona will face Real Betis, which will probably be another test for Girona. Real Betis will even host the match. So the real difficulty may be felt by Girona this time. But I still feel that Girona will win again in this match. Or the match ends in a draw. But I probably wouldn't bet on that fight. Because things have become more unpredictable this season when it comes to Girona.
