Real Madrid secured a 2-0 victory over Girona on Sunday, managing their efforts and making key rotations. Goals from Luka Modrić in the 41st minute and Vinícius Junior in the 83rd sealed the win, allowing Los Blancos to keep pace in the La Liga title race after victories from FC Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid. The result worsened Girona's poor run, marking their third consecutive defeat in the domestic competition.

Carlo Ancelotti had warned in the pre-match conference that "fresh legs" would be crucial following the exhausting Champions League clash against Manchester City. As a result, he made four changes to the starting lineup, with Luka Modrić justifying the decision by opening the score.

Before that, Thibaut Courtois played a vital role, making two crucial saves against Arnau Martínez and Viktor Tsygankov in the 5th and 30th minutes, respectively, to keep Real Madrid in control before taking the lead.
