Real Madrid Triumph Over Girona at the Estadi Montilivi
Real Madrid secured all three points with an impressive second-half display against Girona. The home side started brightly, creating opportunities in the opening stages, but their lack of clinical finishing let them down. Girona’s best chance came in the 30th minute when Asprilla slipped Van de Beek into space, but the Dutchman’s shot narrowly cleared the crossbar.
Six minutes later, Real Madrid took the lead. Jude Bellingham arrived in the box and unleashed a powerful strike beyond Gazzaniga’s reach. Madrid ended the first half strongly and carried that momentum into the second. Bellingham was instrumental again, delivering a stunning defence-splitting pass to Arda Güler. The Turkish international surged forward and finished expertly, doubling the visitors’ advantage.
Madrid’s dominance continued, and their relentless pressure paid off when Luka Modric played a clever clipped pass to Kylian Mbappé on the right wing. From a tight angle, Mbappé smashed the ball into the net, showcasing his brilliance and extending Madrid’s lead to 3-0.
Despite their efforts, Girona struggled to mount a meaningful comeback. A series of fouls in the final 20 minutes saw the frustrated hosts pick up three yellow cards. Girona’s inability to capitalize on chances was reflected in their xG of just 0.33, compared to Madrid’s 0.97.
This result leaves Girona in eighth place, one point behind Osasuna, while Real Madrid remains second in the table with 36 points, just two adrift of league leaders Barcelona. Up next, Girona travel to Mallorca, while Real Madrid face Rayo Vallecano in Vallecas.
