I think it's normal because both teams are strong teams and in the last 3 matches they always ended with 1 goal so obviously no one thought that Barcelona would score 3 goals, on the other hand, Barcelona succeeded in achieving its mission by taking 2nd place. We understand Barcelona have been eyeing that position since the last few weeks when Girona experienced a decline in performance well today is the right time to do it, meanwhile Atletico Madrid still needs to fight to get 4th place.
Do you think Atletico Madrid will miss the Champions League next season or Girona and Athletic Club will take part there? this is not easy to predict, especially as Athletic Club seems to be starting to stabilize in the last 2 matches, even if Atletico Madrid has to move up to the top 4 then I think Girona should out because Atletico Madrid looked more appropriate.
You can say that Atlеtico were tired after the Champions League match, but in fact they played very well, and the game was good for both teams, but Barcelona was definitely better in attack, and they do that and up at second place.
I doubt that Atlеtico can be left without the top 4, there are still 9 matches until the end of the season, that’s a lot, and a lot of things can change, Girona should gather their strength to preserve their positions, otherwise if they continue to lose, I’m afraid that Athletic and Atlеtico will be able to push them out of the CL zone. From the top five, Girona is now obviously weaker.
