Girona Conclude Spectacular La Liga Season with a Dominant 7-0 Victory over Granada
Girona capped off their remarkable La Liga campaign with a resounding 7-0 win against relegated Granada on Friday. Artem Dovbyk reclaimed his position at the top of the league's goalscoring charts with a hat-trick.
Heading into the match, Michel's squad had already secured a historic third-place finish, securing qualification for the Champions League for the first time in the club's history. Eric Garcia, on loan from Barcelona, opened the scoring with his fifth goal of the season in the 30th minute. Viktor Tsygankov and a penalty converted by Dovbyk, both Ukrainians, further solidified Girona's lead before halftime.
Tsygankov struck again early in the second half, while Dovbyk and Cristhian Stuani extended the advantage, leaving Granada reeling. Facundo Pellistri, on loan from Manchester United, was shown a red card for two yellow card offenses, compounding Granada's woes.
Dovbyk, who briefly lost his lead in the Pichichi Trophy race to Alexander Sorloth, regained the top spot with his 24th La Liga goal of the season, converting another penalty in the 90th minute to complete his hat-trick.
The victory solidifies Girona's exceptional season, positioning them among La Liga's elite and marking a historic milestone for the club.
