Sharing points with Atletico Madrid was a painful result because the goal in the last minute came from a former Madrid player himself. In fact Atletico Madrid would have won 3 points if the referee had not ruled out their first goal because the decision was not very correct. But however because of this the Madrid derby is always the fiercest, tightest match and the game is hard, especially for the Atletico Madrid players who incidentally is always like that. Simeone has a tough character and this can also be seen from his style of play where there were almost a lot of fouls, especially in the second half. This draw put Madrid at a disadvantage because they were unable to gain further points from Girona. However it is still interesting because Madrid next match will be against Girona at the Santiago Bernabeu to determine who will lead the top of the La Liga standings.
Atlético were able to take points from Real Madrid in the final extra minutes of the match, and it was a well-deserved draw. And for Girona this is, to some extent, a chance to continue the confrontation, because Real remains 2 points away. But to be honest, no matter how much I want Girona to become champions, it’s hard to believe, and the fact that Girona are still staying so close to Real is something incredible. I thought this round would be decisive and Real would be able to increase their lead.
Well, that at least made the league title chase a bit more fun. Sure Real is still at the top but it also means that we are seeing Girona not that far away. I hope that I am not crazy when I say that I would love to see Girona win, not because I support Girona, and not because I dislike Madrid nor Barcelona, that's not the point.
What I believe I like is the fact that I prefer to have something that would be a lot more fun when a new team wins, that could be Girona, that could be Villareal, or could be Alaves, I really do not care about the winner team. When a league gets a new winner, that always sounds great. Like Leicester winning premier league, that was a real story and even movies about it were made, that was real fun period.
