In an unlikely twist,even the bookmakers could not have envisaged,the new minnows,Girona recently promoted to the Spanish La Liga claimed the scalp of the current La Liga and European Champions,Real Madrid on Sunday 29th October,2017 in a famous victory over the Madrid giants.
In what would surely go down as one of the most embarrasing defeats ever suffered the La Liga Champions,it beats the imagination as to how the star-studded Madrid side with the likes of the recently crowned FIFA world best footballer,Cristiano Ronaldo in their ranks,could fall to the unfancied Girona side.
This element of unpredictability remains one of the most enduring appeals of football for its innumerable lovers and fans. Congratulations to Girona on their famous win!
