FC Barcelona achieved an important victory against Girona FC at the Estadio Municipal Montilivi, which has allowed them to take a six-point advantage over Real Madrid who, with one game less, will fulfill their day on Sunday, January 29 against Real Sociedad .
The first part generated bitterness for the culés, because in just 24 minutes played, their offensive reference Ousmane Dembélé had to be replaced by Pedri due to thigh discomfort.
The match went goalless at half-time and after the restart, Barcelona began to push and with the help of the admitted Pedri managed to break the score.
In the final minutes of the match, Girona tried to achieve equality, having several clear chances. However, it was impossible for him to have hits and he ended up falling.
It should be noted that the Barça team played without its star forward, Robert Lewandowski, who served his third and last game of suspension by receiving a three-match ban for making a gesture to the referee when being sent off.
The next commitment for those led by Xavi Hernández will be Wednesday, January 1 for matchday 20 of La Liga Santander against Real Betis Balompié.
