Barcelona Held at Home by Girona But Extend La Liga Lead to 13 Points Thanks to Xavi’s Brilliant Side

by admin

Robert Lewandowski had a great opportunity to score for Barcelona, but it didn’t happen.

Barcelona couldn’t beat Girona and so they don’t have a 15 point lead at the top of their La Liga standings anymore.

Paulo Gazzaniga from Fulham was the goalkeeper for Girona and he blocked some good shots by Raphinha that could’ve caused Barcelona to win. Then, Taty Castellanos missed a goal chance when he had a clear shot.

This is only the third time this season where Barcelona dropped points playing at home!
