The blackboard José Bordalás has finished with him Gironadefeated 1-0 with the coach’s system Getafewhich without forwards and with a midfield full of players left Míchel’s team on the verge of losing second position in LaLiga EA Sports already ten points behind the leader, Real Madrid.
Yellow JamesAfter half an hour, he was in charge of confirming the tactical superiority of a team that was very inspired in the first half with the signing of Bordalás, who surprised with a lineup that became a trap for Girona.
To Bordalás gave him a coach attack with all that that entails. It can go well, and end up on a pedestal, or it can go wrong and end up singled out. And even more so when Getafe had barely won two in their last eleven games. But even so, the blue-and-white coach took a risk with a revolutionary system that worked.
To begin with, he played without forwards. Out of play due to injury Borja Mayoral, I only had Juanmi Latasa and Jaime Mata available. Both stayed on the bench. Instead, he placed Oscar on top. But it was not a fixed reference either. He took turns with Maksimovic. The two exchanged positions with a robust midfield, in which in addition to the Serbian there were Ilaix Moriba, Luis Milla, Yellu and Greenwood as a differential player freely dedicated to the overflow.
Míchel, meanwhile, also populated the center of the field with players. In addition, Miguel Gutiérrez, injured in the warm-up, left Pablo Torre’s spot. Together with Iván Martín, Aleix García, Portu and Sávio, plus the five from Getafe, a swarm of footballers formed who during the first ten minutes took the measure.
But in the atmosphere there was a greater presence of Getafe, who in the end won the battle in the center of the field with their strength and completely nullified all of Girona’s players. Míchel’s men were left completely exposed to the effectiveness of Bordalás’ system, which little by little amassed the first goal.
Yes indeed, It cost a lot for Getafe, who found good resistance at the back. In fact, until half an hour, with a shot from outside the Greenwood area, he did not worry the goal defended by Gazzaniga, who shortly after could not prevent Yellu’s goal. Getafe stole the ball near the midfield, Ilaix Moriba gave it to one of Bordalás’ winter signings and made no mistake against the Girona goalkeeper.
Míchel, visibly angry on the sideline, encouraged his players to have a burst of dignity and they finally got on with it on the stroke of half-time, when Dovbyk was able to tie a handball against Soria that he sent out. The Ukrainian forward, since he scored a hat-trick against Sevilla, has been stuck. He has accumulated too many days without scoring a goal and Girona suffers without his old success.
But there was still the entire second part. Girona always has the capacity and players to react. They were defeated by Bordalás’ system in the opening act but it was very difficult for Getafe to maintain that pace throughout the match. Girona had no choice but to take a step forward and they did so. He managed to tame his rival minimally and began to prowl around Soria’s goal. Of course, he exposed himself to a serious danger: Getafe’s counterattacks with Greenwood at the helm.
The Brit was in almost all of his team’s parties and the second was able to fall from the blue ribbon with a header from Ilaix Moriba which closed a play started by Greenwood in the center of the field. Each game demonstrates why higher-level teams are going to raffle off this summer. Getafe, barring a miracle, will have to say goodbye to some of the best footballers who have never stepped foot in the Coliseum.
But while Greenwood was doing his mischief, Girona did not sit still. Dovbyk, in a continuous fight with Djené and Alderete almost always lost Faced with the immensity of the Getafe centre-backs, he managed to escape from both of them twice. In one, to get a shot from the corner of the area that Soria grabbed. And in the other, to touch a shot almost under the line after a play between Sávio and Pablo Torre. It didn’t arrive by millimeters and Getafe was saved.
Already in the last section, the exits to the field of play of Jaime Mata, Diego Rico and Aleñá, returned Getafe to the starting box. Once again he was dominant again and Jaime Mata was able to score against Gazzaniga in a one-on-one match that the Argentine goalkeeper saved in spectacular fashion. Dovbyk answered again, Soria appeared and with the chance of the Ukrainian, desperate for one more day due to his lack of sense of smell, the match ended with a victory ‘made in Bordalás’ that could leave Girona, if Barcelona wins its match, without second place.
