The weeks go by but remain marked by success for Girona. Undefeated since the start of the season in the league (5 wins, 1 draw), the Catalan club confirmed its current prosperous period this Wednesday evening. Traveling to Villarreal, Michel’s players achieved a new success, the sixth in a row. The Ukrainian Dovbyk (56th) initially responded to Dani Parejo, scorer from the penalty spot (49th), before the defender on loan from Barça, Eric Garcia, completed the victory for his team (61st). With this success, Girona regains its leadership throne, to the detriment of Barça, held in check the day before by Mallorca (2-2). Villarreal is still not taking off and remains stuck in 14th position.

Further north, Bilbao hosted Getafe. If the Basque club was held in check at the end of the match after Latasa’s equalizer (2-2, 83rd), it still extended its unbeaten streak. It has now been six matches since Bilbao was defeated. Note the goals of former Parisian Yuri Berchiche (6th), and Iñaki Williams, author of three goals in the last three matches. With this point, Athletic retains its fourth place in the standings. Getafe is 10th.
