Girona wasted its chance to retake the lead of the Spanish league after being held 0-0 by Real Sociedad on Saturday, giving Real Madrid a boost at the top ahead of two key matches. Girona coach Míchel Sánchez was sent off with a red card in the 89th for protesting excessively. That means he will miss next weekend's trip to Madrid in a game that could go a long way to deciding the title race. Girona is one point behind Real Madrid, which hosts fourth-place Atletico Madrid on Sunday.
