Girona stun Barcelona to claim historic first-ever win and boost LaLiga title hopes

Girona registered their first-ever victory over Barcelona in style as they came from behind to win 3-1 at the Nou Camp, piling more pressure on under-fire Blaugrana boss Ronald Koeman.

Substitute Philippe Coutinho fired Barcelona in front midway through the second half but Cristhian Stuani hit back instantly for the visitors before Samuel Saiz and Valery Fernandez completed the turnaround in the final 10 minutes. The result lifts Girona top of the league for the first time in their history, two points clear of Real Madrid, while Barcelona's lead at the top is now down to just three points with seven games remaining.

It was another disappointing night for Koeman's side, who have now lost four of their last five games in all competitions. The Dutchman's position is becoming increasingly untenable and it seems only a matter of time before he is relieved of his duties.

Girona, on the other hand, are dreaming of an unlikely LaLiga title triumph. The Catalan club have never won a major trophy in their history but they are now in pole position to make history.

Conclusion:

Girona's victory over Barcelona was a seismic moment in the club's history. It was their first ever win over their illustrious neighbours and it has put them in a position to challenge for the LaLiga title. With seven games remaining, anything is possible for Girona, who are now dreaming of an unlikely triumph.
