In the next two weeks we will know for sure which team will be the strongest candidate to win the La Liga this season. The reason is that currently Girona is playing against Real Sociedad, and the score is still 0-0 in the first half and the match is still dominated by Girona, if Girona manages to get three points in this match. Girona's journey is still tough because their next match is against Real Madrid and we know that Girona lost their last match against Real Madrid. Girona is likely to drop points again against Real Madrid in the next match.
Unfortunately, in this match, Girona could not take advantage of a situation that could be used to find additional points because, so far, Girona needs a win to get additional victory points and reclaim the top position in the standings. At least a draw has put them in a safe position because the points are not reduced. Real Sociedad has a defense that might be difficult for Girona to penetrate and make this match end in a draw, even though Girona has used all their strength to try to penetrate their defense but still can't do it.
It is expected; that’s the hallmark of a team without squad depth; as the season progresses and pressure mount; they are unable to keep up with the momentum.
Now after game week 23, Real Madrid are top of the league with 1 point and a game in hand against Atletico Madrid Sunday night. A win for Real, sends them 4 points clear at the top of the league
Inevitable isn’t it ?
Yes, unfortunately Girona couldn't win this match even though they played as hosts. This draw is enough to prove that Girona is not strong enough to compete with top teams like Real Madrid in the title race. I am sure that after their meeting, Real Madrid will win again over Girona and with that, Real Madrid can occupy the top with a fairly large point advantage Girona.
The match between Real and Atletico Madrid will take place tomorrow. I think Madrid will also win that match to continue to increase Madrid's points tally so that it will be increasingly difficult for Girona to catch Madrid.
