MADRID, 10 May. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Girona FC tied (2-2) this Friday during their visit to Deportivo Alavés, due to a goal from ‘babazorro’ Jon Guridi in the 99th minute, in a match on matchday 35 of LaLiga EA Sports and which has put them in danger the second position of the people from Girona in the classification.
At the Mendizorroza Stadium, the visitors scored early through Eric García. In a corner taken by Viktor Tsygankov on foot changed from the right wing, the centre-back on loan from FC Barcelona rose higher than anyone else to the far post and headed a lofted header into the back of the net.
Alavés tied in the 12th minute, after a run by Giuliano Simeone on the left wing, beating Iván Martín with his back and race. The son of ‘Cholo’ rushed to the baseline and gave way back, where Guridi scored thanks to a sharp left foot shot from mid-range.
The locals continued attacking the goal defended by Paulo Gazzaniga, author of two worthy saves. Girona responded after half an hour, thanks to a sprint by Savinho that ended in a shot, well repelled at grass level by goalkeeper Jesús Owono with his right foot.
That preceded the 1-2, by Yangel Herrera as the icing on the cake of a great collective play. Eric García opened long from behind to the right side, where Portu controlled and filtered the ball to Tsygankov; He passed quickly to Artem Dovbyk, who controlled the ball with his left foot and, with the same foot, hit a low back heel. Without hesitation, Herrera executed a right hand that entered the top corner and delighted Míchel Sánchez’s bench.
After the break, ‘EuroGirona’ forgave their opponent on two clear occasions by Savinho and Dovbyk. On the hour there was a scare with the injury of Miguel Gutiérrez, a mishap that predicted a very long added time. And several interruptions after 90′, with many fouls and yellow cards, caused the match to be extended.
In a desperate cross into the area, Nahuel Tenaglia extended his header, Ianis Hagi did not reach the shot and Guridi appeared at the far post to head in a cross, beating a Gazzaniga who could do little. This tie left the Catalan team with 75 points, still second, and the Basque team with 42 points, in the middle of the table.
