Passed… air from her Girona and caught top of Real Madrid!
Having control of the match and the initiative of the movements throughout the match, the “merenches” left with the impressive 3-0 from the headquarters of the outstanding and hitherto pioneer Gironathus climbing to the top of the standings after eight matches in La Liga!
The guests “cleaned up” essentially from the very first half, when with the goals of Joselou and Tsouameni in the 17th and 21st respectively, they took a two-goal lead. Of course, things could have been completely different if Tsyganov hadn’t sent the ball onto the post with a close range header for Girona in the 4th minute!
The final score was made by Jude Bellingham in the 71′, with the young Englishman reaching the six goals in seven appearances of this year’s La Liga. At the end of the match, however, the thing almost got out of hand, after the harsh marking of Nacho that brought about his dismissal, as there was a risk of creating a generalized conflict between the players.
In the other match of the day held earlier, Rayo Vallecano and Majorca they stayed at 2-2 in Madrid, with the hosts “saving” the point thanks to Radamel Falcao’s penalty in the 12th minute of stoppage time!
