A cross-shot from Miguel Gutierrez what The moon he deflected without flinching and a finish in the clouds of Coutoall in the second half, were some of the attempts, if it can be considered that, to score a goal for Girona last Saturday in the visit to Santiago Bernabéu (4-0). The statistics show that Míchel’s team only had five shots on goal during the entire game. The red-and-white offensive record-setter had little work to do, and maybe even a generous one. In this sense, in goal and with real goal danger, there was none. This is reflected in the statistics. In other words, Girona was absolutely harmless to a Madrid that abused it and could have done even more damage. Without fang on the sides, with Savinho i Tsygankov dull, no nerve in the middle with Portu disabled, with Dovbyk not knowing where he was and Couto waging war on his own, the top scoring team in the First Division did not appear in Chamartín. So much so that with the four goals, Real Madrid have already equaled Girona as the team that has scored the most goals in the League with fifty-two. In addition, Barça is getting a little closer because it has already reached fifty.

Madrid left Girona to zero, who were also unable to score any goals in the game Royal Society. Well, in this case, they did make one (Yangel Herrera) but the VAR indicated that it did not go on the scoreboard. Be that as it may, the final result against the Basque team was 0-0 and therefore, after the 4-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu, Girona went on a string of two days without scoring (180 minutes plus 70 in Vigo after the 0-1 Port). An unprecedented event this season, accustomed as the white-and-red fans are to cheers and to constantly get up to celebrate goals. The reality is that Girona have gone one hundred and eighty minutes without scoring a goal, a record that had not been seen for a year. To find the last time that Girona went two games without seeing a goal, it was now a little over a year ago when the team lost consecutively in the Vila-real field (1-0) and in theMontilivi stadium against Barça (0-1).

In Second, only once

The offensive ability of Míchel’s Girona is so high that it makes finding a longer sequence of two games without scoring impossible. In other words that is, never since the man from Madrid has been coach, has the team gone three consecutive games without scoring a goal. Even more, apart from the current streak and that of last season, only once more did Míchel’s Girona go scoreless for one hundred and eighty minutes. It was in the promotion season coinciding with the last day of the League at Plantío against the Burgos (0-0) and in the first leg of the semi-finals of the promotion play-off in Montilivi against Eibar (0-1).

Back to work

Meanwhile, the squad is back at work today to start preparing for next Monday’s game in Bilbao againstAthletic Club. The players enjoyed two days off to recharge their batteries and recover from the defeat in Madrid (4-0). Michel will recover Daley Blind and Yangel Herrera, but Couto will lose, sanctioned. David Lopez he will not be recovered from the injury yet.
