Countless chances, zero goals
The most attractive duel of the day began with high pressure from both teams. The first was for the lions through Guruzeta. The red and white striker if planted only before Gazzaniga and his shot from the outside went meekly into the hands of the Argentine goalkeeper. It was a warning for a Girona team that was just one point away from regaining the lead that Real Madrid had taken from it.
The pupils of Valverde were being superior and with a couple of passes, the Basques were planted in the Catalans’ area. However, the second of the match came from the legs of Yangel Herrera, former Granada footballer. The cross from the left wing was finished off by Stuani at the far post, but his header missed the target.

The goal would not take long to arrive through Tsygankov. Center from the left wing, the ball travels through the area and reaches the Ukrainian who beats Unai Simón at the short post. Míchel’s team is once again the leader.
Nico Williams accelerated with bursts on the left lane and Athletic began to create danger in a match that had been difficult for Valverde’s team. And faith was rewarded. Sancet passes between the lines and there it appears Iñaki Williams to dribble inwards and finish against Gazzaniga. Justice apparently on the green, but with a lot of time ahead.
