BARCELONA, Spain (AP) - Girona won 1-0 at 10-man Cadiz to retake the lead in the Spanish league before overnight leader Real Madrid plays later on Saturday.

Girona won thanks to midfielder Aleix Garcia's goal in the 59th minute. Garcia scored with a strike from the edge of the area after he was set up by right back Yan Couto.

Cadiz played with a man down from the 10th minute after Darwin Machis saw a direct red card for a foul on Yangel Herrera.

Girona, a team from northeast Catalonia partly owned by Manchester City's Abu Dhabi ownership, rose ahead of Barcelona and Madrid.

Madrid trails by one point before it hosts Osasuna later. Barcelona trails by two points before visiting Granada on Sunday.

Girona had entered the previous round as leader after winning six games in a row before it lost 3-0 to Madrid last weekend.
