nGirona has 28 points, three more than Real Madrid and four more than FC Barcelona, teams that will play the ‘el clásico’ of Spanish football on Saturday.nnThe Catalans’ dominance was intense, even finishing the first half with 70% possession, but only in the end did they really get the victory, with a well-constructed move that Herrera finished with a powerful long-range shot.nnClearly in crisis, Rafa Benitez’s Celta Vigo remain in 18th place, first in the relegation zone, with only six points.
