Barcelona left Girona with three points this afternoon after celebrating a difficult 0:1 victory.

The Catalans were considered favorites, but the hosts still put up strong resistance and we saw a fairly even match. Girona played closed and did not allow many chances to the players of Barcelona. In the first 45 minutes of the game, we almost didn't see a big chance for a goal on either side.

It was played similarly after the break, but Barcelona managed to turn one chance into a goal in the 61st minute. After a mistake by Barcelona's defenders, the ball reached Pedri who scored, and that goal of his turned out to be decisive in the meeting.

After the conceded goal, Girona no longer had anything to defend, so they started to attack and were close to equalizing, but Ter Stegen intervened twice. Barcelona is now at the top with 47 points, six more than Real Madrid, who play their match of this round tomorrow against Real Sociedad.
