JAKARTA - The 26th week of the 2023/2024 La Liga Party brought together Girona vs Rayo Vallecano at the Montilivi Stadium on Tuesday, February 27, 2024.

The hosts managed to get three points with a big win of three goals without reply.

Victory clearly made Girona stick to Real Madrid again at the top of the standings. At the same time, the addition of the three points was to reclaim the second position from Barcelona's hands.

The match took place in the midst of heavy rain. Michel Sanchez troops dominated from the start of the match. They packed a record of 55 percent possession and fired 14 shots of which eight were on target.

However, no goals were created in the first half. However, Girona had a number of opportunities.

For example, a chance from Savio who was able to penetrate the penalty box, but his shot was still blocked by the goalkeeper.

Next, the combination on the left wing put Portu in a good position to shoot. However, that effort still has not met the target.

Artem Dovbyk got his last chance in the first half. Unfortunately, he didn't get a good cross in the penalty box so it was difficult to reach.

Girona was only able to open the scoring in the second half through Viktor Tsyhankov, in the 52nd minute, after taking advantage of Miguel Gutierrez's assist.

After that, the match was tough. The game struggled in midfield battles.

Girona seemed difficult to break down Rayo Vallecano's defense again.

Opportunity after chance of birth. Dovbyk had two chances of doubling the lead, but all his shots were still soaring.

Portu also had three years of money when he failed to direct his shot so that it was not right on target.

Girona actually deserved the next goal for fully controlling the match in the second half. However, the goal awaited was only in injury time.

In fact, Rayo has played with 10 players since the 76th minute after Pep Chavarria received a direct red card.

Savio finally answered Girona's curiosity. He even scored a brace in just four minutes.

Savio's first goal came in the 90+1 minute after he rammed into the penalty box and fired a shot at the near post.

Savio again made Montilivi thunder to welcome Girona's third goal. This time, the Brazilian scored a beautiful goal to ensure the team's victory.
