Burgos’ opposition lasted twenty minutes, from the initial whistle to Juanpe’s header, which went straight to the corner. With a very high possession index, bordering on 60% for many minutes, Girona wanted to close 2021 with a good mark. A difficult year, with the loss of a new final in the summer, and a lot of changes on a sporting and institutional scale. But the people of Girona are stubborn, unable to show the white flag in terms of illusions. Let no one doubt that they will be back this season when the time comes.
When the scoreboard opened, the football made by Aleix Garcia, Samu Saiz and Álex Baena was scandalous. With acrobatics typical of circus artists and Montilivi with his laughter, making the wave. In the stands, one more week, everyone was wondering if that wasn’t the best game of the year. Stuani, before the break, finished as only he does. And the result could have been even bigger, but a Vaseline from Samu crashed into the crossbar. When Guillermo narrowed the gap, the stadium left his airs of grandeur aside, but unlike other times, this is no longer a problem: the team knows how to suffer. And he has the Uruguayan, who scored his 96th goal for the club.
