Girona is ruthless, but there was no need to wait until Sunday January 21 to find out. Since August, the Catalan club has continued to push the limits of the possible by delivering a mano a mano to Real Madrid and Barça. And clearly, it’s here to stay. Facing Sevilla FC this Sunday on the 21st day of La Liga, Girona made short work of the Sevillians (5-1) who are still struggling this season.
Although Quique Sánchez Flores’ players had opened the scoring quite early thanks to young Isaac Romero, still scoring (10th), the Catalan strikes finally got the better of them. The insatiable Artem Dovbyk scored a hat-trick in the space of 7 minutes (13th, 15th 19th), before the team’s other Ukrainian Viktor Tsygankov hit the nail on the head in the second half (56th). At the very end of the match, Cristhian Stuani also took part in the party (89th). In the standings, Girona (52 points) takes the lead in the championship and leaves Real Madrid (51 points) in the rearview mirror. Sevilla continues to walk in the shadows and finds itself in 17th position.
