So far, Real Madrid has 87 points out of 34 matches played, leading the La Liga table, while Girona comes second with 74 points and Barcelona is sitting in third position with 73 points.
Reacting to the victory, Real Madrid striker, Joselu said: “We leave our skins out there on the pitch to live moments like today’s, we are so close to the league.”
“There are young players who are very hungry for titles, veterans who are delighted to be here… and these are special moments.”
