I envisage a rough game between Manchester united and Bayern Munich because Bayern Munich recently seem like they are dropping form and their confidence may have dropped a little owing to the fact that they lost helpless recently to an average team in their domestic league so it's an advantage for Manchester united as they will be playing from home and knowing what is at stake in this game I'm sure Manchester united will definitely give out their very best and if it happens they win, I pray they het lucky that the results from the game between Galatasaray and Copenhagen turns out in their favour especially a draw
Both Manchester United and Bayern Munich had very bad results in their last league games. This strangely rises up the hope of Manchester United progressing to next round, because Bayern themself will have the game meaningless due to their guaranteed progression by topping the group. The psychological impact of such defeats can indeed affect a team's performance, but the advantage of playing at home is significant for Manchester United, and your expectation that they will give their very best is reasonable, given the high stakes in the match.

The desire to capitalize on Bayern's recent struggles and secure a positive result can drive Manchester United's determination and effort on the field. Even though Manchester United need luck with the results from the Galatasaray and Copenhagen match, in the form of a draw, They can't let this opportunity go without proper effort. The interplay of results in the group stage often adds an extra layer of unpredictability and excitement to the competition. It's fascinating to see how teams respond to challenges and capitalize on small opportunity in such crucial game.

Real Betis performance is not very good I know that too. But this is a do-or-die match. At the same time, even if this match is drawn, Real Betis will qualify for the next round, so I am favouring Real Betis. Real Betis' attack is a bit weak. So they are playing a defensive strategy. And the team has drawn in 8 matches in the La Liga. Real Betis managed to draw against the powerful Madrid in the last match. And so Betis players will be confident in this match as well. For these reasons, my guess is that the match will be a draw or Real Betis will win. Real Betis has a low chance of losing. Real Betis' defenders have performed well in Europa League matches. In 5 matches they scored 7 goals and conceded 4 goals.
The fact that this match is a do-or-die situation adds extra pressure for Betis. The emphasis on Real Betis playing a defensive strategy, due to perceived weaknesses in their attack, makes sense in a high-stakes match, but it also can backfire them because it can give Rangers bigger spaces to build attacks. Psychological factor can play a significant role in a team's their performance. This is why seeking a draw sometime adds more nerve-wracking situation.

The emphasis of Real Betis have a strong defensive performance in Europa League matches further supports the possibility of a positive outcome for them. But Betis need to prevent Rangers build flawless attacks toward their defense. In knockout competitions, anything can happen, and Real Betis' low chance of losing, as per your assessment, adds an interesting dynamic to the anticipation of the match.

Victor Osimhen just won the CAF Men's player of the year award, so his price and value will not reduce. For any club coming to get him, they will be very aware of the player they are getting and his position in the world football. They should be prepared to spend because Napoli will be making sure that they demand a good fee for his release. Victor Osimhen is a very good and physical striker, many clubs will want him because of the physicality he can add to their attack.
Victor Osimhen winning the CAF Men's Player of the Year award is undoubtedly a significant boost for his reputation in the football world. His agent and club will use it to pump his price tag. The fact that he has attributes as a skilled and physical striker make him an attractive prospect for many clubs. His ability to contribute physically to the attack adds a valuable dimension to his playing style. Napoli has every reason to demand a considerable fee for his release, because of his recent achievements and form.

In the competitive football transfer market, top-performing players like Osimhen often have high bargaining value, and clubs who want to sign him should be aware of the financial commitment involved. Player's agent will make the transfer dynamics favors his own side in choosing which clubs may be the option for his player. Club will also put a high demand for talented striker. Osimhen's success is well-deserved, and it will be exciting to see how his career continues to unfold.

The return of several players such as Udogie and Romero in the squad after the red card penalty received gave Postecoglou more freedom for several substitution options  and strategy changes and the results were quite visible when they face Newcastle and won quite heavily but the problem is with their current situation  in the tight schedule of course there must continue to be a rotation that is useful to minimize so tht the player
 are not too stressed in playing because if they are allowed to fatigue then the risk of injury will be greater than before.
Thedefeat against West Ham yesterday was proof that even big clubs and dark horses like Liverpool, Manchester City Arsenal and Tottenham  will be very difficult in their busy schedule but not much time lag.
In a few day  we will also see some matches which I will not play with bets on EPL clubs in the current situation of course Arsenal against Brighton and Liverpool against Manchester United are the best treats.   
The positive impact of having key players back was evident in the victory against Newcastle, where the team performed well. Postecoglou needs to have his team for rotation, especially during a tight schedule. Managing gametime for players to avoid fatigue is indeed crucial to minimize the risk of injuries. The demanding schedule requires strategic rotation to keep the squad fresh and competitive.

The defeat against West Ham emphasizes the challenges that even big clubs face during busy schedules. The competitiveness in the Premier League, especially when there's not much time to recover between matches, can lead to unpredictable outcomes. It's a reminder that no team is immune to the effects of a congested fixture, and adaptation becomes crucial. Postecoglou's ability to navigate through these challenges, rotate the squad effectively, and maintain performance levels will be crucial for Tottenham's journey this season.

I don't think Bayern Munich has suffered such a heavy defeat in the league for a long time.Frankfurt gave them a reminder of what it feels like to be defeated.Frankfurt managed to score 5 goals in 60 minutes, a score that was not expected by everyone.Bayern Munich must have been surprised. They suffered their first defeat in the league and lost the lead.I think it was a shock for them.To score 5 goals in 60 minutes against a team like Bayern Munich is not something that every team can do.Frankfurt did it and was the first team to stop Bayern Munich.
This defeat could be a warning for Bayern Munich that there are teams that can read their game strategy well, even when they make changes after falling behind their strategy can still be read well by their opponents so that all their efforts are in vain.
Against Stuttgart in the 15th-week match will be very important for Bayern Munich because Stuttgart is performing quite well at the moment, even though they have experienced two consecutive defeats, they can immediately recover to collect points again and Stuttgart could be the next team to damage Bayern Munich's fight because when Stuttgart being able to get 1 point in the match later would be very detrimental for Bayern Munich.
Bayern Munich should take a lesson from the heavy defeat to evaluate what's going wrong with their team setup. They cant keep playing with the same tactics and strategy throughout the season, because many teams would be able to read their gameplan. Bayern  need to have adaptability and perhaps some unpredictability in their approach of each game. Tuchel have to prove himself, Fans and the board that he has capability to manage a team as Bayern calibre.

The upcoming match against Stuttgart, especially considering Stuttgart's recent good form despite two consecutive defeats, becomes crucial for Bayern Munich. Perhaps Stuttgart have the ability to recover and collect points again adds an element of challenge for Bayern. Stuttgart could potentially indeed be the next team to disrupt Bayern Munich's fight. In football, a team like Stuttgart can pose a threat to Bayern's stability. The match becomes significant not only for Bayern Munich but also for the larger context of the title race.

Girona's competition to be at the top of La Liga reminds me of Leicester City in the 2015/2016 season. Hopefully, if Girona becomes La Liga champions this season, they will retain the majority of their starting eleven.
Too early speculation what the achievement by Girona have the same thing of Leicester City won Premier League tittle season 2015/16, have difference cases with Madrid keep pressure Girona on the first standings and first meeting Madrid success defeated Girona over 3-0. But many unpredictable result with football matches and I don't sure until how many matches left Girona keep with consistent performance although 16 matches success managed top position.

Real Madrid have remaining two points from Girona, I don't think difficult for catching Girona points although last match get draw from Real Betis and give few matches later and I sure Real Madrid will back to the top standings again. Barcelona have bad performance in this season and not really special achievement when have team win against Barcelona because Madrid have won before and defeating them on their home match.
It's an interesting comparison between Girona's journey with Leicester City's historic Premier League title win in the 2015/16 season. But That's indeed a difference in cases, especially considering the early pressure from Real Madrid and the 3-0 defeat, to say Girona have the same challenges in maintaining their lead. Leicester competed with Tottenham, while Girona is competing with Real Madrid who have rich history and strong mentality. But Football's unpredictability makes us to never say never going to happen again. The resilience and consistency they've shown so far contribute to the intrigue of the title race.

Regarding Real Madrid with the two points difference and the expectation that they will likely catch up is a common sentiment. We have seen teams reclaiming the top spot, and Real Madrid is anticipated to make a strong climb. The fact that Barcelona is struggling so far after being defeated by Girona makes them having difficult challenge to defend the tittle. But the title race seems to be shaping up to be a thrilling battle.

There are many advantages that PSG has this season because they are still one of the most successful clubs in France and talking about the title is not difficult because their dominance in Ligue 1 is still quite difficult for other clubs to break. Nice has experienced rapid progress this season and they have emerged as one of the clubs that has performed consistently and so far they have only experienced their first defeat against Nates.

Even though they are not very strong and do not have a squad capable of competing with PSG, I think we should give appreciation because so far they have fought hard to become one of the strong teams in Ligue 1. They are four points behind PSG and if Nice can maintain consistency then it is very likely that they can provide fierce competition in the race for the title.
PSG's latest historical dominance in French football indeed makes them a force that is difficult to compete, and the title race often revolves around their performance. I dont think Nice will be able to have a fighting competition against PSG, even though They are having a consistent performance so far by experiencing only one defeat against Nantes. But ,of course, they deserve appreciation for their progress and determination, even though they may not have the same level of strength and squad depth as PSG. The fact that they are only four points behind PSG shows their competitive spirit and potential to challenge for the title.

Nice need to maintain their consistency in performance, because that's the key for them to continue on this trajectory. They have a real chance of providing strong competition in the race for the title. Football may provide us a fair share of surprises with Nice being a tittle contender this season. The unpredictability of the sport adds an element of excitement to the title race. It's an interesting show on how Nice navigate the challenges of the season.

There are so many teams were competing each other to climb up and stay at the top. The only thing that saddened me to see chelsea is still losing the game. To be honest, this is so disgusting for chelsea to face another lose again.
It seems like that the bad trend will still continue for chelsea soon. Chelsea needs also to collect more points to make sure it will not be going down again. Even pochettino has been also expressing his disappointment toward the club.
Having lots of young players are not good. It can be seen from how chelsea is still wasting so many chances to win the game. The incompetence performance from the players were just making it even worst.
No doubt that if chelsea may be going back to the releagtion zone again soon. Chelsea is just chelsea now. it will never be another manchester city. It's caused by the prime era of chelsea has gone.
It's indeed really frustating to see a big club with good players keep getting bad results. It makes situation unacceptable to say "it's normal for a team to have ups and downs", because Chelsea have spent too much fund to sign good players. Chelsea has a rich history and has demonstrated resilience in the past. Young players can be an asset who bring energy and fresh talent to the team, but they can't develop if the team keeps performing on low quality trends.

Pochettino needs a stronger and better backup from the board, because he cant work alone to solve this problem. The board needs to provide him a assisting team who will help him to address and evaluate the root of problems. This way is the best approach for the club to start the rebuilding with well-analyzed strategic plan. Football is a dynamic sport, and fortunes can change. Rather than dwelling on current struggles, it might be helpful to focus on supporting the team during this period.

Milan and Newcastle United are both going home, I'm predicting they won't be able to qualify. But shit looks like, Newcastle United would be accepted and qualify for the Europa League Competition.

The defeat against Atalanta in Serie-A, might affect AC Milan confidence. I personally expected Milan to win the match, unfortunately Milan had to play with 10 players, and lose. In the match against Newcastle, there will definitely be pressure on the Milan players, because 3 points is a must, to take Milan to the UEL. Of course this is very difficult with Milan's current condition, maybe there will be a miracle that will bring Milan to qualify for the UEL, although maybe there will be no hope for Milan to reach the final.
The loss against Atalanta in Serie A might have an impact on AC Milan's confidence. But both Milan and Newcastle are overall in the exact same situation, both lost their last league game, even the same points, same chance in this last group stage game, but only one of these two teams will stay in europe, whether it's UCL or UEL. Both teams share equal pressure anticipating the game, but just Newcastle have the home adventage and they have a very good track record at home, while Milan have a bad track record away.

Both team have slim chance to progress onto Round of 16 with a win and PSG's loss. The reference to the possibility of a miracle reflects the unpredictable nature of football and the potential for unexpected turns of events. Regardless of the outcome, the commitment and effort of the players will likely be crucial in navigating the challenges they face. Fans can always hope for the best, even in challenging circumstances.

while the other has the ability to change you every day, you will be forced to think and make changes from time to time so that you can grow and have an ever-increasing mindset.
An increased mindset can only be possessed by those who are not satisfied with their monthly salary, because such people will always think of getting other sources of income in order to change their lives. And in general, of course, the level of ability to think and also the ability to move is also very much needed because thinking without doing is also nonsense.
There are indeed people with an increased mindset being more common among those who are dissatisfied with their monthly salary. Dissatisfaction can be a motivator for people to seek for more income and strive for positive change in their lives. It reflects a proactive approach to improving their financial situation and overall well-being. A mindset shift with concrete actions is what propels people toward their goals. It acknowledges that thoughts alone may not lead to tangible results.

Thought and action should be a synergy to create a powerful combination for personal and professional development. That acknowledgement encourages a comprehensive approach to improvement, because recognizing the ability to think creatively and strategically must be complemented by the willingness and capability to take decisive steps toward positive change. It resonates with the idea that transformation often requires both mental and practical engagement.

Some people who have reached their retirement age they do work it out to extend their stay in an organization they find themselves, I don't know if I should call it greed or not but is like they enjoy what they gain from their place of work and is hard for them to let go.
I don't think is only women who pray to retire so they can go look after their family, some men do have that thinking also, in some cases some people who are not satisfied with what they're seeing at work just see retirement as a way to get out of working.
There are many people who enter their retirement age decide to continue to working, it can be influenced by various factors, and it's not solely driven by greed. Dedication to the work or desire to stay active are few of the reasons. Motivations can vary from person to person. Some people may genuinely enjoy the work they do and find a sense of fulfillment in their professional roles. Others may have financial considerations, such as the need for additional income or a desire to secure a more comfortable retirement. Everyone's circumstances and priorities are unique.

On the other hand, There are people who may eagerly anticipate retirement as an opportunity to shift their focus to other aspects of life, such as family, personal interests, or simply enjoying leisure time. This perspective is not exclusive to any gender, as both men and women may share similar aspirations for their post-retirement lives. Dissatisfaction with work can indeed be a motivating factor for some people to see retirement as an exit from an uncomfort professional environment.

Even though I don't have much experience with Ponzi scheme investments, I have learned a lot from other people's experiences. So I can avoid it until now. And actually being a careful person doesn't always mean you can avoid risks. But we can minimize the risk.
Yes. To understand Ponzi schemes, we don't need to experience it because we can learn it from other people's experience. Although scammers will always have new ways to scam people but we can know the common indications (signs) of Ponzi schemes at least. So, we can be more careful and try to avoid investing in the projects that have the indications of Ponzi schemes. We actually can invest in a safe way if we choose reputable/trusted projects only. As far as I know, most Ponzi schemes come from the new projects.
It's indeed a wise and cautious strategy to understand Ponzi schemes by learning from others' experiences and be aware of common indications. Indeed, there are recurring signs that can serve as red flags for potential Ponzi schemes, and being informed about these indicators can help investors make more prudent decisions. Easy and big profit is one of the indicators to be cautious, because common sense says nothing is easy when it comes to big money.

The emphasis on avoiding investments in projects displaying signs of Ponzi schemes demonstrates a proactive protection of people's financial interests. Choosing reputable and trusted projects is a key aspect of responsible investing, and it aligns with the principle of mitigating risks. It's notable that many Ponzi schemes tend to emerge from new projects. New projects may lack the established track record and credibility that more established ones possess. This doesn't necessarily mean that all new projects are fraudulent, but it underscores the importance of thorough due diligence and careful consideration before investing in unfamiliar ventures. By staying informed and exercising caution, investors can significantly reduce the likelihood of falling victim to Ponzi schemes.

The altcoin market is hard to navigate. You will get showered by many choices but to find the best one is as hard as finding a needle in grass. But with practice and enough experience, we can also take advantage of this market. We also need to remember that not everything will bring us profits. We win some, we lose some. Can't win them all.
Altcoins are the best choice for short-term investment plans. The altcoin market moves based on sentiment. This includes positive or negative news, hype, trends etc. It will do well for the time being, but once it is over, the project may die. So we need to make the best out of it in that short period of time. Failing to do so will lead us to losses. Because in the crypto market, one's loss is another one's profit. If you can't make a profit out of it in time, someone else will make a profit out of your loss.

So learn to navigate first. Gain experience and deeper knowledge about these sentiments. Otherwise, your safest bet is Bitcoin. Buy, HODL, forget.
I find it well-placed on how the analogy of finding the best altcoin being as challenging as finding a needle in the grass captures the complexity of navigating through numerous options. It's quite a valuable acknowledgment that success in the market comes with practice and experience resonates well with the dynamic and evolving nature of cryptocurrency trading.

The volatility of the altcoin market, particularly its sensitivity to sentiment, and trends, emphasizes the importance of short-term investment plans. People need a mature approach to crypto trading that is acknowledging that Not every choice will bring profits and the losses are part of the game. The emphasis on seizing opportunities within a short time frame aligns with the fast-paced nature of the altcoin market. People need to take note that in the crypto market, one's loss can be another's profit, adds a layer of competitiveness to the landscape.

People accuse TikTok that are spying on everyone's device. Everyone doesn't realize that every app that we have on our own that we have permitted to that we don't seem to care about at all is spying on us.
They get our privacy and data that's sent to them upon downloading and installing them.
Everyone is right that we are their products and things that we're taking on internet for free, they are not really free at all because there's a consequence of obtaining them.
Maybe some people don't really understand when installing applications on their cellphones and allowing access to their cellphones so that they can find out about what we do on our cellphones. If we install dangerous applications and also allow access to our cellphones, of course this will be very dangerous. data that we store on the cellphone.

It will indeed be very vulnerable to free applications that ask for access to the cellphone we have and there is no guarantee for the data on our cellphone, currently there is nothing that is truly free in this life, of course there are consequences for what we have done. use and very few people are aware of this.
It's really scary to acknowledge that the potential risks associated with installing applications and granting access to personal data on smartphones is indeed crucial in today's digital age. Many users may not fully be aware of the implications of allowing certain apps access to their devices. Reminding the danger of installing random applications and the importance of being cautious about granting permissions is very important. Free applications often come with a hidden cost, and users need to be aware of the risks for the security of their data.

Your point about the lack of true free services and the existence of consequences for our actions in the digital realm is well taken. Users need to be more conscious of the apps they install. Reviewing permission requests critically and prioritizing their digital security are so essential. I think it's recommended that smartphone containing important data is not being used to install other random applications.

As you say it's about meeting satisfaction and the OP can't be a great measure of how each individual interests differ from what is needed.  The OP goal may be to make people more aware of unnecessary  purchases but that doesn't mean every item name will be put  on the trash list. This is only an option if you want to buy it and if not please throw  it in the trash.  Actually it's not complicated  people already know and OP doesn't provide any solutions Satisfaction, hobbies even just  eliminating  curiosity.
We are a society of consumers, advertising affects everyone equally, you see something, they convince you that you need it and now you want to buy it. Not long ago I watched a film, if I’m not mistaken, it’s called Things, but I could be wrong, it really reveals the essence of our society and in fact we can do without most of these unnecessary things that we constantly buy. Old unnecessary things can be given to those who need it more, or sold, but they should not be stored unnecessarily.
I totally agree with you. We have bocome a society of consumers, in a sense, we are made to buy things that have no essetial values to our life. Your reflection on our consumer society and the impact of advertising resonates with a broader societal observation. The influence of advertising on our desires and purchasing decisions is sinking in modern life. Many of the things we acquire may be unnecessary, because we could live without them, This raises an important point about mindful consumption.

I like your suggestion of redistributing old and unnecessary items to those in need or selling them, because it aligns with the idea of reducing waste and promoting sustainability. That encourages a more thoughtful and intentional approach to consumption, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between genuine needs and the influence of external stimuli. It's a reflection that reminds people of considering the impact of their choices not only on their lives but also on the broader community and the environment.

If Sevilla qualifies to play in the UEL tournament then I think I'll even prefer them as the potential winners of the tournament to Liverpool cause they've got more experience than any other team in Europe when it comes to the Europa League Tournament, like you said they've won it the most and there's a high tendency for them to win it again, based on their experience, well there's no doubt that Liverpool is a potential winner of the tournament but they've got lots of work to do to achieve that cause the  tournament is about to get interesting.
Favoring Sevilla to win UEFA Europa League has become a common sense, even though they are/were not considered the best team in the competition. They say that Sevilla is specialist of UEFA Europa League, because they always struggle in Champions League, even in the group stage with weaker teams, but they could win UEFA Europa League for a few times. Their track record in the competition showcases a deep understanding of its dynamics.

It's clear that you see Sevilla's history in the UEL as a significant advantage. While Liverpool is favorited as a potential winner, the recognition that they have work ahead of them shows the competitiveness and challenges inherent in the tournament. If Sevilla qualify for the Knock out satge of UEFA Europa League, I think of four teams who will have big chance to win. They are Liverpool, Leverkusen, Roma and Sevilla. I hope all these four will reach semi-final to make the climax of the competition more excited.

Felix has always been a good player, he's a loan player no doubt but he's performed more than he did with his original club. Barcelona has given him the type of tempo he needs to play with. They're a good and committed team and their players are coordinated. The coach himself is young and knows what he needs and builds his team to deliver rightly. It won't be bad to watch Felix stay to do more at Barcelona. Atletico didn't favor him as much as Barcelona has. He's now out of his shell and has built more confidence in himself as well. I personally don't think that after being watched to grow by Barcelona, then they'd let him off their camp.
Joao Felix's performance at Barcelona invites many optimism from pundits and fans. It's evident that you believe Barcelona has provided him with the right environment and playing style to showcase his talents more effectively than his original club. I believe Barcelona have the emphasis on signing him permanently considering how Xavi favors felix significantly along with positive atmosphere at Barcelona.

The idea of Felix staying at Barcelona to continue his growth and contribute more aligns with the positive trajectory you see in his development in Barcelona's team. The contrast with his experience at Atletico and the notion that Barcelona has allowed him to build confidence is a testament to the impact of the right environment on a player's performance. However, this idea is not easy to become a realization, because Atletico wont let him go for cheap, and Barcelona is struggling with their financial situation. I could be so unfortunate for Football fans to not watch the best form of the a great talent.

Without De Bruyne presence in the line up, Man City seems to have lost much of its creativity. It must be admitted that De Bruyne is a very important figure, and when he is available again Pep will easily implement any strategy when competing. The opportunity to reduce the difference in points with Liverpool and overtake Aston Villa and Arsenal is still quite open, overall City chances of retaining the EPL trophy are still maintained.

Liverpool and Arsenal are challenging Man City in very different ways this season, we have seen their previous meetings, so Pep Guardiola must be fully alert if he wants to be successful at the end of the season, and I think City management will move in the January transfer window to add several players.
The absence of Kevin de Bruyne that makes Mancity's unconvincing form really proves that KdB is really a great player. His role in mancity's display emphasizes the creativity of mancity's team. The anticipation of his return suggests a potential boost to Manchester City's strategic flexibility under Pep Guardiola. Mancity losing their spot on top of the league since the absence of De Bruyne and Rodri  really shows that Guardiola has lost his flexible tactics.

Mancity's effort to defend their league tittle is now facing a tough competition with three teams; Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal, who are above them right now. This makes the challenge even tougher for Mancity and Guardiola. The recognition that each team poses unique challenges, because in previous meetings, Pep Guardiola need to stay vigilant and adapt his strategies accordingly. Januari transfer window could be one of potential solutions to address any shortcomings or reinforce the squad for the remainder of the season.

The heavy defeat in yesterday match made a slight difference in terms of perspective because saying they could not stabilize with the tight schedule they faced, I dont think this is far fetched for Bayern.

The current situation Bayern cannot do much apart from improving themselves even better, especially with their situation which is not too predictable with what they get in the match.
At the moment if they continue to get a situation that happened like yesterday then it would be better to let go of one of the competitions such as the DFB so that their performance can be more focused on the Bundesliga and Champions League because with the Leverkusen situation now then honestly I personally feel that Bayerm will again have difficulty maintaining their dominance in the Bundesliga although I still believe they are able to do that.  
Bayern really need to reevaluate their situation after the heavy defeat. The challenges of a tight schedule can indeed impact a team's stability, and your perspective on this matter aligns with the realities of modern football. Prioritizing competitions, such as letting go of the DFB, to focus on the Bundesliga and Champions League should be an option to consider right now to make a strategic plan for next step. I dont think Tuchel is able to manage multiple competitions which demands an optimal performance, that may require making tough decisions.

Bayern needs to focus on improving themselves in the face of unpredictable match situations, because this is a realistic approach to addressing their current challenges. Your belief that Bayern can still maintain their dominance in the Bundesliga is a testament to the team's historical strength. It's not uncommon for top teams to face periods of adjustment, and the key is how they react to certain situation.

Barcelona is really want to score a goal, so they're playing with under pressure. Barcelona only care with their attack since they've made 31 shots, but don't really care with their defend. I guess Barcelona might underestimating Girona because their previous matches they weren't so offensive like this one.
In my opinion, when Barcelona fell behind 1-2 they immediately increased their attacks more aggressively but they were unable to balance their strength when Girona counterattacked. Yes, they failed to maintain their defense and that was their imbalance until Girona was able to score 4 goals in this match.
I think Barcelona didn't underestimate Girona in this match but they failed to form their line to be stronger when the opponent pushed back.

Girona, who is chasing victory in this match, makes them return to leading the standing with a 2 point advantage over Real Madrid. Girona became a trending topic after successfully beating Barcelona where they were praised as being quite strong this season even though looking at their performance of course they are not a team filled with quality players but Girona became strong because of the cooperation between their players.
The balance between increasing attacks and defending was indeed Barcelona's problem in that match. Girona succeeded to benefit from the Barcelona's unbalance with transitional counterattacks. The breakdown in maintaining their defense became a significant factor in Girona's success. It allowed them to score four goals in the match.

This is a massive win for Girona, because not only they secured a win against Barcelona but also propelled them to the top of the standings with two points above over Real Madrid. The recognition of Girona's strength, despite not having a squad filled with high-profile players, speaks volumes about the effectiveness of their teamwork and cooperation. Girona's performance in beating Barcelona demonstrates the impact of effective teamwork and strategic play. I think the win over Barcelona makes Girona passed the biggest test for them to be considered a serious league title challenger.
