Barcelona midfielder Pedro González, known as “Pedri,” expressed his frustration over the red card shown to his teammate Ferran Torres for a challenge on Yáser Asprilla, stating it was "more or less similar" to the one Pathé Ciss made on him during a match against Rayo Vallecano, where no red card was given.

"Sometimes the referees don’t call it the same way," Pedri complained after Barcelona's 4-1 victory over Girona at Montilivi. "We’re really happy, we knew it was going to be a tough match. Girona is a team that plays great football with the ball, but we started really well and with a lot of intensity," he explained.

The key to the victory, according to the Canary Islander, was once again the high pressing Barcelona applied: "We’ve improved a lot in that area. We understand exactly what the coach is asking of us, how we need to position ourselves for pressing, and you could see it in Lamine Yamal’s first goal."

With this commanding win, Barcelona remains at the top of LaLiga EA Sports, with five wins in five matches. "We knew we had to start strong. In past years, we didn’t begin as we would’ve liked, and the coach told us to push from the very first match, that LaLiga is won in these early games. If you start collecting points, you start building a lead," Pedri concluded.
