Girona, which is putting pressure on Atletico Madrid -snip-
Girona is only 2 this season in La Liga. Their projected progress is very visible. If they are able to perform well until the end of the season it is extraordinary. But there is a little doubt, I think they are still quite difficult to compete with Real Madrid. In addition, this season break, I think there will be many teams that improve the condition of the team with player transfers.
In terms of players, Girona contains experienced players. They have a good combination of young and old. They are also in a good mental state, because they always get positive results. But maybe they are not stable enough until the end of the season. Although they do not have many matches, because they are focused on La Liga.
If they had not lost points in the Real Betis match, they would currently be the leader of La Liga. To be honest, I did not expect such a performance from them at the beginning of the season, but everyone appreciates the football they play now and I think they are very successful.
Barcelona or Atletico are of course good teams, but when we look at their performance so far, we can say that Girona is much better
Girona proof as a team challenging for the title this season will be presented in week 19, when they will face Atletico Madrid. Their ability to beat Barcelona previously deserves a thumbs up, and in my opinion Atletico Madrid has certainly prepared themselves mentally not to lose points and lose their position in the standings.
