Clash with Girona 'won't decide title' - Madrid boss Ancelotti

ESPN-Followed by-INA  
Carlo Ancelotti has denied that Real Madrid's top-of-the-table clash with Girona on Saturday will decide which team wins the LaLiga title, but said Madrid will have to be at their best against a side who "have done better than anybody" this season.
 
Madrid go into the high-profile game at the Santiago Bernabéu top of the table on 58 points, but just two clear of Girona after a 1-1 draw with Atlético Madrid in last weekend's derby.

"Obviously if we win tomorrow, we'll have the advantage," Ancelotti said at a news conference on Friday.
 
"But the season is still very long. We're well positioned, and so are Girona. Tomorrow's game won't decide anything. The league won't be decided tomorrow, whatever happens.
 
"We have high points totals, us and Girona. The sooner you get to 80 points, the closer you are to winning [the league]. You haven't won the league if you get to 80 points but you're very close."
