Roma is losing currently as they conceived a goal on the 25th minutes. Sausuolo is not playing to win possession but they are playing in a technical way by not allowing Roma to penetrate their defense, and their goalkeeper has deprived Dybala ball from entering the net. Henrique broke the deadlock and put Sausuolo ahead of the game.

Roma is dominating the game but they are still finding it difficult to net the post. They are just unlucky to equalise the goal. Lukaku has missed an opportunity but what surprises me is that Sausuolo is very confident in this match. I hope that Roma will score in this second half and if possible win this match. Mourinho boys are now at advantage as Sausuolo is one man down, due to a foul committed by Boloca.

Sausuolo 1-0 Roma

In the absence of Vinicius Junior due to injury Ancelotti has changed the formation to 4-4-2. We are watching Bellingham on the left wing now and there is a Joselu - Rodrygo duo on the front line. Brahim Diaz is back in the lineup as well and he has already scored a goal too.

I don't expect Real Madrid to make a mistake in the Granada game now. They should be able to win the game comfortably. But 1-0 is a pretty risky score therefore they had better increase the goal gap quickly.

I think there is no need to rush because ya, of course Real Madrid will never be satisfied if they only win with a thin score against a mediocre team. Also, in the previous match when Real Madrid played away against Cadiz also the fact that Vinicius not play due to injury, but in fact Real Madrid still managed to win with a score of 0-3. Moreover, in this match against Granada, at least Real Madrid also played at home, so of course Real Madrid will still be able to score more goals in the remaining minutes that are still quite a lot in this second half.
Rodrigo hàs being in his super form since on the 8th of November and he has being scoring goals. He scored the second goal for Real Madrid in the second half with a rebound after Bellingham took a shot that Granada punch out directly to Rodrigo and he scored with a powerful strike to finish and netted the post. Bellingham has also been of assist and also scoring goals as in this match he doing great.

Rodrigo has scored seven goals in his last five games and I think that with him and Bellingham, Vinicius absence isn't that felt. Real Madrid has been in full control of the match since the first half till now and they have taken back the first position on the table with a clear three point victory over Granada. Real Madrid 2-0

It is like Girona might start losing points after they drew their last match. This is because currently Valencia has just netted their post with a brilliant finish by Hugo Duro after he received a through pass, the goal came in on the 57th minutes. This is the 7th goal scored by Hugo Duro for his club this season.

Girona the home side has been dominating the match but their goalkeeper was the one that caused the goal as he left his goal post before Hugo Duro got that through pass that he used to take advantage of Girona goalkeeper. Girona hasn't relaxed since the match start and they have being presuring Valencia after that goal but no goal yet. One thing that I know about Girona is that they know how to turn things around in a moment like this so I am expecting an equaliser.

Girona 0-1 Valencia.
What a day for Girona has they have scored three goals in 8 minutes from one goal down. I can't believe this as they have dismantle Valencia defense in the second half welcome back. Stauni is a man with the golden touch as he scored the first goal with a perfect header on the 82nd minutes and the second goal on the 88th minuteswith a superb finish to put his team on the lead with three point assurance for them.

The third goal that was scored by Savio was later can cancelled by VAR as an offside. Girona is indeed a strong club and the competition is getting tougher now in Laliga. The two substitution made by Girona brought light to their victory, as Stuani was part of that substitute. He is the MVP of the match because he came from behind to steal all three points from Valencia. It i

The match has ended  2-1

OP, if you know that you would not be happy and you can't afford to lose the money that you use to bet, it is better that you cash out and keep the little profit that you have made. Because it is better to make to little profit than losing the money that you used it stake for the bet.

However, if it is an amount that you can afford to lose, you can wait till the final game is over, because it is better to see the end of the outcome than you quit at the middle of it.

This is the same problem that most of us is facing on sportbet, and most times it is the last game that do cut your slip.

Next match, the 9th standings place AC Monza will be opponent team for Juventus and opportunity to get three points and manage top position awhile regarding Napoli vs Inter Milan will play one day later after Juventus's match. I think great chance for Juventus if success with get three points for the first time have chance with top position standings and moment to make them keep motivate consistency performance for winning Scudetto in this season. Last week match, Juventus loss full points after getting draw against Inter Milan and fail return to top position although with playing in front of their fans.

For matchday 14 have interested match between Napoli vs Inter Milan, I think this opportunity for Juventus get first standing because Napoli under Walter Mazzari have quit well performance and will give second loss for Inter Milan in this season.

The Inter Napoli match will only end one way, unless Inter decides to lose the match. In any case, Juventus must do their job, that is, win with a team within their reach.
I'm not saying it's an obvious victory, I don't like underestimating teams, but it's a possible victory.

Inter is in a better position to win Napoli because they are still strong and haven't declined in their performance. So I don't see any reason that will make them not to play the normal way they use to play. I am not underestimating Napoli but the fact remains the fact, since Inter needs to maintain their first position as they will see that Juventus will have already top the league after they must have won Monza.

It is not yet certain that Juventus will stay on the first position for more than 26hrs because I don't think that Inter will allow this to happen because they will try their possible best to make sure they win Napoli. I think that Inter has more zeal and passion to win this season trophy than Juventus.

In group E ,the game between Liverpool and  LASK, the first half ended in Favour of Liverpool where Luis Diaz scored the account opening goal for Liverpool. Mohammed Salah needs to step up his game in the front, I didn't see that flexibility in him in the first half and I hope he performance in this second half and to get a bit spicey in his touches with the ball . Liverpool had opportunities to score more goals in the first half but they failed, the team generally should bring in more strength and do better in this second half.
Liverpool played well in the first half, they were able to score two goals already which has made the work easy for them to finish on top of the group ahead of Toulouse.

The group E team matches is interesting to watch, because as expected, Liverpool is leading after winning todays match while Toulouse if they were able to win today against Union Saint, they will qualify to the round of 32.
Sallah has scored the third goal for Liverpool with a penalty kick on the 51st minutes, and this shows that their opponent is too weak for them. It is clear that Liverpool will go far in this leagues as they have finished first in their group with today's victory.

I am watching Marseille vs Ajax match right now, this is a tough match because the way both clubs are playing is really impressive. The Gabon international Aubameyang scored the third goal to put his team on the lead with a powerful, outstanding, incredible bicycle kick on the 47th minutes. It is very obvious now that Marseille will win this match because Ajax is currently playing with one man down as  Berghuis has been given a red card is rough tackle on Joaquin Correa.

Playing at home for Manchester United does not provide any advantage because, after all, the opponent that Manchester United will face is Bayern Munich. Of course, Bayern Munich also has great prestige to keep playing well and will still target to win. There is no need to make a parable about the results of Copenhagen who managed to hold Bayern Munich to a draw because of course, the prestige of playing against Manchester United is greater than just playing against Copenhagen. So ya, of course, it will still be difficult for Manchester United to finish in second place but yes, at least Manchester United still have a chance to finish 3rd but with a different scenario.
I have lost confidence in the Manchester United squad this season and even though Baryen Munich must do everything possible to make every possible tactic that will improve the performance to be able to use Manchester United's mistakes in the match to record some winning against the club and this make the difference and possible miracle winning for Baryen Munich in this stage of the round in champion leagues,  although at most the game may end in a draw for both clubs which will further increase the chances for Baryen Munich and a declining record for Manchester united.



Manchester United will definitely win the Bayern matchbecause Bayern can play the last match with a predominantly rotation squad, as they are guaranteed to advance to the next round and are currently having a competitive Bundesliga season. Manchester, on the other hand, must finish the match by winning, otherwise they will not even be able to go to the European league. If this match ends in a draw, Manchester United will probably finish last in the group, regardless of the outcome of the Galatasaray Copenhagen match.
You have so much confidence in Manchester United despite the disappointment of yesterday and you know that Bayern Munich wasn't happy yesterday when they shared points with Galaxataray yesterday, which means that they will come fully prepared to win the match.

However, Manchester United is not a club that you can put all your trust and believe that they will be able to win Bayern Munich because they mess things up when they are in the middle of winning. Same thing that happened in Old Trafford was the same thing that repeated itself, it is just that yesterday match ended up in a draw. I can't rely on them because the coach is something else.

trading is one of the most common place where people makes profits
Only few traders make profit from trading and moreover this thread is a bitcoin accumulation thread and not trading because trading can't be taken as a full-time job. Beginners and low coiners don't need to think about trading but how to increase their bitcoin portfolio to their bitcoin target through regular DCA.

But know it that gambling can never be equated as trading because gambling is more of probability and chance based game instead of trading
You might be right, but I see them as similar thing because no one can predict bitcoin price movement accurately and trading is very complex. Most people hump into trading without understanding a dime of it as same with gambling because they fill that they can make quick profit from them. They both have high risks.

If after investing we become restless and worried about our investment due to the volatility of the market, it is difficult for us to hold the investment for a long time.
This is the reason why you are only to invest with only the amount that you can afford to lose to eliminate the fear in you. Also using DCA strategy will lower the risk of investing.

In such situation, what will happen to the bitcoins that you've hodl, like isn't the dip gonna affect the bitcoins?
The dip is not going to affect the bitcoin in your wallet, but it will only affect the value of bitcoin because 1btc = 1btc.
This is why you should take advantage of the dip and buy in discount price so that when the value of bitcoin increases, it will favor you.

But if peradventure bitcoins reaches it's speculated ATH does it mean that one can possibly stop buying and holdling or continue because I feel that if Bitcoin should reach ATH then investors may no longer be interested in buying and holdling since the price wouldn't go any further higher again.
Have you ever thought that no matter how high the price of bitcoin is there are always people that are ready to buy bitcoin, if not nobody will buy bitcoin at ATH and how will those people that love selling will sell, if there is no buy. Apart from profit you should also see that bitcoin is an hedge to inflation and a store of value. Maybe this is also worth buying bitcoin at any price level instead of leaving your funds in fiat for it to depreciate.

For me, I don't think there is any need to divide the money for investment into 3, because if you want to invest in an investment, you should put in mind that you are about to risk what you can afford to lose. But if, by any means, you know that you don't want to lose anything in an investment, then there is no need for you to invest.
Because you don't like it doesn't mean that it is not effective. As a matter of fact, any investor using these three strategies will be able to accumulate more bitcoin than someone using only one accumulation strategy. It will also give you a better experience on how to tweak with the market base on your present cash inflow and your bitcoin portfolio size. A beginner can start with DCA method of accumulation but after 2yrs he can change to other methods, it is good to change tactics of buying.
1391  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: November 29, 2023, 09:26:09 PM
I think the way Manchester United played in this game was not really bad and they started the game well enough and I think the goal Bruno Fernandes scored in this match was really nice. Even though they were winning the match with a 2-0 result and everything was going well for this team but they couldn't keep the result they had in this match. I think Ten Hag was already disappointed but still scoring three goals can show this team still has good forwards even in this situation.
Indeed, their game was not too bad, but they still didn't get full points, even though they had the opportunity. I'm not sure about this, but Man United seems a bit too relaxed when they have already led several goals. Meanwhile, the match is still ongoing and there will still be many things happening. However, the strategy is not consistent enough to maintain these goals until the end. Even after they were 3 - 1 up, then Galatasaray could reach out and hold them 3-1. This is really disappointing because Man United cannot maintain that position. So they will most likely be eliminated from the group phase. Moreover, in the last match, they had to face Bayern, who incidentally was the strongest team in the group.

Manchester United lost so many opportunities that they was suppose to convert to a goal and win the match but they never utilised it and this has made them to be on the tight corner in qualifying to the round of 16.

Towards the end of the match, I was thinking that they will be a le to score a goal to give them the victory over their opponent but the match ended up in a draw. So many errors in the match and I never expected Galaxataray to equalise those two goals but they did and that was when I knew that it will be difficult for United to win the match.

Bayern is still finding it difficult to net the post and Copehengan is playing with passion and all seriousness to make sure that Bayern don't score any goal and I am still surprise at this, because it is still goalless. It will be difficult for United to win Bayern Munich in their next match. I
1392  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Only Sell what you don't need. on: November 29, 2023, 05:40:44 PM
OP, it depends on the property that the person is willing to sell because you are only emphasing on land but it is not only land that is a property that people in this forum have sold. If it is an asset like land, then there is no need to sell such asset because it will appreciate with time. Instead, you should look for another means to make earnings so that you can use that to invest in bitcoin.

However, if it is a property that will depreciate, like bike or household properties, it will be good when they are sold to invest in bitcoin because with time they will depreciate and might even need you to keep maintaining them with the funds on you. If you sell such and buy bitcoin, you will make profit from your bitcoin investment and buy back those properties and still have some fractions of bitcoin in your wallet after the bull run.
1393  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: November 29, 2023, 09:38:14 AM
Selling and taking profit during the bull run is not ideal because after selling, you might not be able to buy back at the price that you bought before and this will make you have less bitcoin that the initial amount that you had before selling. Meaning that you don't have a bitcoin target and you are not focus on accumulating bitcoin on a long term investment. Another reason why this strategy is not the best is that you will miss out the compounding interest that your bitcoin investment will accumulate for you if you only keep on accumulating till 10yrs time or more. Try and see your bitcoin investment as your life savings and not for profit alone because nobody knows if at the long run it is your bitcoin investment will be the one to take your to the next level in future because there is high possibility that bitcoin price might keep on increasing with timeline. It is better to save for the future than saving to sell and take profit and buy back again. All bitcoin sold can not be bought back easily because of the change in price towards the upside. It is also a bad idea to sell all your bitcoin investment and hold fiat. What is things didn't work out as you planned it after selling, that is when you will regret your action.

I don't agree to your assertion that it's not ideal to take off profits within the bull run like what's the essence of investing? Isn't it to make profits? So in a situation whereby an investor have achieved his major aim of investing which is to make profits so after selling off his bitcoins the next for him to do is to pause investing for sometime until the price begins to dip then he can start buying and holdling again till he aquires a reasonable amount or better still he apply the DCA till the price skyrockets again so that's what an experienced investor does.
You are not to sell all your bitcoin because you want to take profit and fill that you have arrived. Instead, you should sell part of it, if you have reached your bitcoin target so that you can diversify into another investment like property, stock, bond. Why do you stress yourself to accumulate for a long period of time just because you want to sell all your investment. What if after selling all and you are holding fiat and the price of bitcoin didn't dip to the price that you expected ot means that you will only buy little amount of bitcoin and you should not forget that they more you are waiting for bitcoin price to dip, your fiat currency is depreciating. Why do you want to start from the scratch again by starting as a newbie that just started his bitcoin journey. It means that you didn't realize the potential of bitcoin during your period of accumulation and the compound interest is what makes it more of a better investment than any other investment.

How long do you think that it will take you to build up your new butcoin portfolio that you just started, it might take even double of the years that you used to build the first one because one thing I guess that you have not considered is that for every circle bitcoin dip price is always higher than the new circle and the amount that you used to buy lets say 0.003btc in the first circle will be higher than the amount that you will use to buy 0,003btc in the second circle. There is what id called a maintenance stage as explained by JJG, if you have reached your bitcoin target, you can start maintaining your bitcoin investmnet by limiting buying regularly and buy once a while either by lump sum or you buy at the dip. Umagine that you accumulate 1btc for 10yrs based on your regular DCA approach and you sold off all of it after ten years because you feel that you have reached your bitcoin target, and you fo back to square one and start accumulating again to reach 1btc again. It means that your bitcoin portfolio is not increasing more than one level and wouldn't get tired of accumulating over and over again, mate I must tell you that a time will cime that you will never be able to continue with your accumulation because we don't know some unforeseen challenges that we befall on you and you will also be getting old and this shows that you will never reach that fuck you status that you don't need to work for anyone again but only depending on your bitcoin investment to take care of you in your entire life.

investments should be there for as long as we are leaving so that when we are old and can no longer work, our investment will take care of us and out children. A successful investor don't start deom the scratch if not you will never be successful. If you have reaced your bitcoin target, you can sell like 20% of it and keep 80%, so that as time passes by your compounding profit will also be increasing, than you starting all over again like a newbie. This means that you have nothing to show that you are an OG investor in bitcoin and you will gave little profit like all those beginners.

In trading, making profits is not guaranteed all the time so accumulating for a very long period like 10 years as you stated may not really be an obtainable idea as the future is unpredictable no one knows how the fate of the coin might turn out due to some uncertainty that surrounds the stock market. Making accumulation for a very long period of time might even lead to losses because in the quest of hoping that the price will skyrocket then it suddenly starts dipping so it's really not ideal to accumulate for too long as no one can speculate or predict what it's future holds.
This is where you got it wrong because bitcoin is not stock, so you don't use the stock market to judge bitcoin.  There is a high probability that bitcoin future will be brighter than been dull. It is because no one can predict the future that should also make you not think that selling all your bitcoin and start all over again to invest is the best instead of to keep on hodli and maintaining your bitcoin portfolio by buying once in a while and diversify to other investment. Growth is what matters a lot and not the opposite. There are some mistakes that when you have made it, you will regret it throughout your lifetime because they cannot be corrected.

Get out of the Champions League Milan after tonight super super miserable performance,Dortmund could have been winning 1-5 right now or even more if they had scored the huge amount of goal chances they have had so far,what a pathetic team Milan,I wonder how is a team like that fighting for the title in their domestic league,it must be down dramatically in performance the Serie A as there is really no other explanation to what I am seeing here.

Looks like the favorites Milan and PSG are saying good bye to Champions League this year as only one of them will go to the Europa League,the other out of every competition.

A win today will mean a qualification for Dortmund to round of 16 and should PSG lose they are on the verge of missing out on the last 16 places. The drama in this group still continues to last match I think. I agree with you that Milan have been poor in this seasons champions league but that should not take away their good performances in the league or even ridicule the league. There have been many times clubs failed to make an impact in the champions league but go home to win their league. A clear example is the Barcelona team which is poor in the Champions league but always peeps Real Madrid who are the king of the competition to the league title. So it’s not the impact of the competition that matters in the league
Most of Milan key players were absent in the match, players like Rafeal Leao, Pellegrini and some others. This was why it was very difficult for them to net the post after Chukwueze scored in the first half. Milan had a bad day today as they had so many opportunities but they keep on missing to put the ball inside the net.

Dortmund is free from the group stage as their victory over Milan tonight has automatically qualified them to the round of 16. Adeyemi came from the bench to destroy Milan defense and he also scored the third goal for his club to seal up their victory. He is such a brilliant player.

Lazio is leading and have definitely sealed their spot in the round of sixteen, they had no goals in the first half of the game up until the second half and for a moment I taught they me have less then two goals because it was taking longer than expected to score goals.

Lazio is dominating with possession of the ball and more attempts than their opponent, they have the home advantage and are using it well to their advantage, Celtic doesn't seem like they have still got a chance with the champions league as they have just one point and are at the bottom of the group, with this loss against Lazio today, it's most definite they will crash out of the champions league at group stage.

Two home teams have won their respective matches, these include Lazio and Shakhtar. Lazio had to wait a long time and work hard because Celtic was really good at maintaining their defense until the 80th minute. Celtic's defense was no longer good after the 80th minute where they conceded 2 goals in less than 3 minutes between the 82nd and 85th minutes. Lazio's success in winning this match was making them lead the Group E standings and have great potential to qualify for the round of 16.

Milan, PSG, Barcelona, ​​Young Boys and Manchester City are the other 5 home teams that I believe will win today. Feyenoord are doubtful as Atletico Madrid will be determined to win the match, but this match looks good for a draw with both teams sharing the points. Shakhtar's victory over Antwerp will force Barcelona to win the match against Porto, this will be very interesting because both of them do not want to lose the opportunity to qualify for the round of 16.
On the other hand, two matches out of the five mentioned home games are losing to their opponent in the first half. The two clubs are Manchester City losing to Leipzig by 2 goals, and PSG is losing to Newcastle by a goal.

It is a surprising scoreline result in the first half because nobody expects Manchester City and PSG to first concede goals against their opponent. Anyway, there will still be a second half to play. Maybe Manchester City and PSG will try to equalize or win at the end of the match. Who knows what football tactics and corrections Pep Guardiola and the PSG coach would strategize to see to their wins before the end of 90th minutes of the match.

This is why it is football, you should expect the unexpected because football is full of surprises. Imagine that Manchester City that we never expected to be losing in the first half has already conceived two goals and Leipzig that we though will not be able to lead the first half is leading.

I just hope that Manchester will be able to equalise the two goals on the second half, but from what I saw it might be difficult for city to win this game because Leipzig is a strong opponent. The second half has just begun and let's see the fate of Manchester City in this game. If Leipzig wins the match it means that so many people slip will cut.

Paying some little amount to have fun is not stupidity mate, because you go to the cinema to watch movies and you also go to the stadium to watch football and I wouldn't see that as something bad or something not worth to pay for. So is gambling, some people gamble for fun and to make it more interesting they have to stake their bets with money that they can afford to lose, because they already know that the money wouldn't affect their daily expenses.

It is when you see gambling as a means of income that you will be disappointed with the outcome of the game when you are not lucky. Gambling is open for everyone just like the way everyone has the right to drink alcohol and you wouldn't say that because some people spend all their bankroll on drinking, because they love drinking that they should stop drinking. What matters here is discipline, you can discipline yourself and make a gambling budget, so that you don't lose more than that amount that you have allocated to your gambling activities. Every gambler has their own lucky moment being it rich or poor.

What if there is no retracement to $39k? and the price of Bitcoin keeps on gaining, you might miss out on accumulating your Bitcoin because you are waiting for a retracement. I could suggest if you have enough money divide it into three parts that you will use to buy the Bitcoin dip, buy when the Bitcoin price is at peaks, and buy Bitcoin with the DCA strategy, instead of waiting for the Bitcoin price retracement and miss out on holding a Bitcoin. Just as @JayJuanGee mentioned to you if you are staying in BTC for 4-10 years it might end up doing you good because the BTC price will be above your buying price in those years.
You can't say ''what if there is no retracement'', because surely there will always be retracement. Following the law of economics when supply exceeds demand there is bound to be retracement. Because there more willing sellers than willing buyers and even @JayJuanGee knows this. Bitcoin is not a stablecoin and saying what if there is no retracement doesn't go well. Yes DCA strategy is very good and I'm not disputing that fact, but what I am saying is I don't accumulate bitcoin due to FOMO because of the knowledge I have gathered on bitcoin investment even though my forum accounts says otherwise. Yes I am into bitcoin as as a long term hodler and I am not disputing the fact that we are yet to see the full potentials in bitcoin investment. So since am going to be around and holding for a long term what's the rush of always buying the top. I feel more comfortable buying when there is a 5 to 10% dip in price from high of the week or month.
No problem with the time or amount that you feel is cool with when you want to buy, but one thing that you should understand is that an investment needs to grow with timeline and not to be stagnant, that shows that you are progressing. This is the reason why the advice of not waiting for some price range before buying is so that, you can keep on increasing your bitcoin portfolio with regular DCA bit by bit and before you know it after a long period of time you will have a significant amount of bitcoin in your portfolio. Instead of sitting down and watching the market come to your own price before buying.

It is better that you accumulate weekly, monthly or quarterly because it might be hard to see the retracement like you said and nobody knows when it will come. Buying bitcoin when the price is high is not FOMO for investors that are using the DCA strategy because they are buying always irrespective of bitcoin price. You should also take note that nobody can predict bitcoin price movement which makes your accumulation strategy not good for newbies who have their bitcoin target and want to achieve it. The joy with investors is when they see their bitcoin portfolio increasing due to their strong commitment and actions on accumulating regular. From the look of things based on your statement, I don't think that you have an investment goal that you want to achieve i.e bitcoin target, it is not to be on a long term investment journey that matters but the ability for you to increase your bitcoin investment portfolio during the period of your bitcoin journey so that you can reach a certain level that you will be happy after you gave re-access your bitcoin portfolio to see the size, maybe it has reached 8x or 10x the original size.

Don't forget that the profit of your investment depends on the size and the timeline. It means that is bitcoin price don't dip till after the ATH, your investment portfolio will just be stagnant. This is a bad strategy for anyone who has just begun his bitcoin journey because you will never grow, and if someone that is new starts accumulating with regular DCA weekly or monthly, within some period of time his investment will be bigger than yours because you feel comfortable buying at your own price. One thing you should know that is called success in investment is not how long that you have been in that investment, but it is how much that you have invested and achieved that makes you successful. buying at the dip is more investors that have reached maybe 70% and above of their bitcoin target.

A good start for Girona in the second half as they have scored in the first ten minutes of the second half. V. Tsygankov scored on the 55th minutes with a clean finish to give a better opportunity for his club to win the match. Bilbao is not happy with the goal as they have struggled to equalise the goal by Nyanki Wiiams on the 68th minutes. This goal has balanced the game and brought hope back to Athletic. Nyanki Williams is a out standing player and he has managed to equise the goal. This is his 6th goal this season. His younger brother Nicole Williams is also one of the players who the club is depending on in this game. I hope to see more goals before the game will be over.
It is now 1-1
It looks like the match will end 1-1 and both teams will share the points. Bilbao fired more shots than Girona, but Girona's defense is still quite good so far. Bilbao were not lucky to get an additional goal in this match because Paulo Gazzaniga appeared very impressive. He has made 5 saves from a total of 6 shots on target for Bilbao so far, of course he deserves to be the best player in this match if Girona wins or draws.

There are only 5 minutes of normal time remaining in the match and there will probably be 1 minutes of additional time to finish the match. Girona was a little down in building attacks because they often had to defend because Bilbao really made a hard effort to get their second goal. I don't think the score will change until the end of the match, but nothing is impossible.
The match has finally come to an end and it was a draw as none of the two clubs gave room for laxity that will make the other score the second goal. What surprised me in the match is that even at the last minute and extra time of the match both teams were still attacking to make sure that they could score but it was impossible. I guess that assuming any of them relented the opponent would have scored and win the match.

This draw has favored Real Madrid as they are now on the first position of the league, although Real Madrid and Athletic is on the same point but  Real Madrid is leading with seven goal difference. Let's see if Girona will be able to take the first position again from Real Madrid as time goes on.

Has anyone watched the Girona vs Bilbao match? I think Girona really played at a high level against Bilbao and so far they have really been able to pose a threat to Bilbao's defence. The players are so enthusiastic, but not only Girona but Bilbao are the same. This is not an ordinary boring match, but this is an interesting match like a top team match.

The current score is still 0-0, but Girona is really playing with high enthusiasm to win. The pace of the game is very fast and very interesting to grab your attention. Both teams have chances to score, but I hope Girona doesn't win this match.
It is a very lively match as both clubs are playing in putting in their best to make sure that they win the match. But it is quite unfortunate that the deadlock has not be broken yet. Girona missed a lot of opportunities, and they couldn't score in the first half.

On the other hand, Bilbao was also unable to break through Girona defense and net the post after missing so many chances. The williams are really doing a great job as they are trying to create opportunities that will make it possible for a goal, but all their efforts were in vain because Gazzaniga was stopping all their balls from entering the post. I believe one of this clubs will be able to break the deadlock in the second half, but which club will it be because both clubs are eager to score first.
