Catalan duel in La Liga
A few days after the humiliation suffered in the semi-finals of the Spanish Cup, 0-4 against Atletico Madrid, Barcelona goes tonight to the field of Girona, for a match in the domestic championship. Before this setback, Barcelona had managed a 6-match winning streak in all competitions.
After Real Madrid's 4-1 win over Real Sociedad, the Catalans have dropped to 2nd place in the table, 2 points behind the “galacticos”, so a win tonight would return the team to the top position in La Liga.
Before today's game, the Catalan coach spoke about the opponent, but also about what his students have to do:
“Girona is a well-organised, brave team that plays well in defence. We will have to play very intensely. You can lose in football, but how you react is important. And I want to see the reaction to the game against Girona“, said Hansi Flick, according to the club's official website.
On the other hand, Girona is coming off a 3-game winless streak. In the most recent match in the championship, Michel's students drew 1-1 at Sevilla's ground.
In the round match between the two teams, Barcelona prevailed in October 2025 with a score of 2-1, thanks to the successes of Pedri and Araujo.
