Once again, we want to restore the public's great confidence in the shopping center and reward visitors who choose the shopping experience at Espai Gironès as the reference center in the Girona region.</p>]]></description>

After narrowly missing out on last season's final in a heartbreaking tie against Inter Milan, the Catalan club will be looking to reach a European final again eleven years later. But to achieve this, they will first have to overcome Newcastle, another tough opponent. "It's a draw where we could have faced two very different teams, but both have their difficulties. Newcastle is a tough side, and it's a difficult ground where we've already struggled," said sporting director Deco from Switzerland.</p>]]></description>

In total, seven million euros have been distributed for the 35 series sold from a tobacco shop on Café street in the capital of Baix Penedès. The winners will receive 200,000 euros for each tenth played. The winning combination proves, once again, that luck does not understand ugly or low numbers and that all the balls in the drums have the same chance. "It is a number that not everyone buys because it has a zero in front, and it is one of those that you would not normally take, but sometimes those numbers that we are not used to buying win," explained Marc Latorre, the owner of the business along with his mother. Rosa Sabater has been in charge of the premises for forty years and had never distributed such a big prize. "I am semi-retired, but I still work a little and the other day, jokingly, I said: 'I will retire the day I give the Gordo'," she exclaimed. For the moment, part of the omen has come true.</p>]]></description>
