The champions were made to work hard for the win
Jordi Alba was full of praise for Girona after Barcelona’s 2-0 win at Montilivi on Sunday.
The hosts made it tough going for Barcelona who took all three points thanks to goals from Nelson Semedo and Lionel Messi.
Alba explained after the match just how highly he rates Eusebio Sacristán’s men.
“They’re a tough rival for us, they make it difficult for any rival,” he said.
”They knocked Atlei out of the Copa. They are one of the toughest teams in LaLiga.
”LaLiga is more and more equal every day. The teams who are up there – Madrid, Atletico, us - we have to be there, but it is tough going to every ground. Every match can surprise you and cost you the title.”
