Yes, it is true, Girona has brutally thrashed Real Madrid and their little hopes of winning the Laliga this season. The Blanquivermells did it in style by scoring four times against the stuttering Madrid defense.
Real Madrid did try to carve a space in between with both Vinicius Jr. and Lucas Vazquez scoring but Girona’s Valentín Castellanos never let Madrid recover as he scored 4 decisive goals against the defending champions.
Looking at the stats, Real Madrid had most of the possession throughout the game with a shocking 72% but Girona made sure that they had the chance,s and most importantly they took their chances.
The absence of Karim Benzema really hurt as Vinicius struggled to work his pairing with Rodrygo something he has mastered with Karim Benzema.
With this win, Girona quickly jumped to 9th on the Laliga table while Real Madrid continue to be massively behind the league leaders by 11 points.
Fans and foes of the Spanish club shared their ruthless opinion on the internet.
Here are some of the most craziest reactions on social media.
One Laliga fan switched their allegiance to Barcelona by saying:
“As an honest unbiased Madrid fan, I have finally opened my eyes and realised just how small and insignificant and lucky this banter club really is. So that’s why I’ve decided to support Barcelona , a big club.”
Another fan accused them of using stupid Champions League excuses for the loss.
“Trust Madrid fans to use the excuse “we are focused on the champions league”
Another fan even compared the mighty Madrid to Chelsea:
“Even Chelsea haven’t conceded 4 goals in the league this season.”
A few fans already congratulated Manchester City for qualifying for the Champions League final.
“Well, congratulations to City for advancing to the finals.”
And,
“Carlo be like ‘Forget about this, what am I gonna do about that Norwegian beast?’”
Real Madrid’s next big assignment is going to be against Osasuna in the Copa del Rey final and then they play the in-form Manchester City in the all-important champions league semi-final.
