A very interesting match in this match because Girona is really very good when facing a club that is actually above them in terms of performance.
after being left behind by 2 goals they were even more challenged and they did 2 direct reply goals within 10 minutes.
Even though there were no additional goals in the second half, looking at the game they actually played very well because they kept trying to create opportunities and this was really interesting.
1 point is still good enough for both of them even though this broke the wins of the previous matches for Girona and Sociedad but still 1 point is still very decent for them if you look at the game they did in this match.
The 1 point is still good for Real Sociedad, but not for Girona FC as Real Sociedad gaps the closest rival (Villarreal) with wide points and it's impossible that they can be displaced from the fourth and enviable position till the season is over. But for Girona FC, at least three clubs could still displace them from their current level if care is not taken. Their points difference is too close, so I believe that they needed that match more.
However, they did well today as they were able to equalize without pressure, the professionalism was seen and were able to keep it at the draw even after Oriol Romeu was handed a red card.
But indeed this is still a little better, even though it is 1 point than nothing, especially their performance which is still rising compared to previous seasons, it is still a little better for Girona, but on the other hand, if you are still hoping for a zone for the Conference League, or at least fighting for the Europa Legue they have to work extra hard again for now because their condition is still not safe. Bilbao, Rayo and Osasuna also still have the opportunity to shift them in this regard.
A red card at the end of the match is not as bad as in the first half. Girona were probably able to draw because Sociedad are almost guaranteed to remain in the Champions League zone. In La Liga this season, the top 4 clubs in the standings with a big gap to the other teams. Whether Girona can keep their place in the standings is questionable for me.
Sociedad are still very comfortable for their position because in this case they are 8 points further from Villarreal and 10 points from Betis which of course is a little difficult for these two teams to catch up with 5 matches remaining for Villarreal and Betis.
But even so this is not a reference for Sociedad to relax because of course other possibilities can still occur because in the remaining matches they have the names Barcelona, Atletico and Sevilla who are now in a state of improvement.
