Barcelona took the lead after just three minutes, with Christensen, and it looked like they were going to postpone Real Madrid’s Spanish title. However, in the next minute, Dovbyk equalized for Girona. In first-half stoppage time, Barça took the lead again after Lewandowski broke the tie with a penalty.
Everything indicated that Real Madrid’s title would be postponed. Barcelona held the advantage for 20 minutes in the final stage, but Portu entered the field to change the game. In less than ten minutes on the field, he scored twice and assisted Miguel Gutiérrez, thus guaranteeing Girona’s victory.
With the victory, the Girona took second place with 74 points and secured a place in the Champions League next season. Barcelona, ​​in turn, fell to third, with 73, and saw Real Madrid — now with 87 — secure the Spanish title in advance.
