LaLiga EA Sports | 1×1 Girona vs Villarreal
Girona jeopardized their chances of finishing second after losing 0-1 to Villarreal in Montilivi on their second defeat at home, failure to catch up with Bertrand Traore in the second half and left Barca behind in the battle for the final place on the road to the Spanish Super Cup.
Michel’s team tried with more enthusiasm than good play, but the collective defensive mistake was punished by Marcelino’s side, who then didn’t leave much room to hurt Jorgensen. This is the 1×1 score of Girona players against Villarreal.
1×1 Girona vs Villarreal
Gazzaniga (6). Inadequate. After a fairly quiet first half, the Argentine goalkeeper was hit hard in the second half. His stretching was not enough.
Eric Garcia (5). Fragile. Unlike Barca, the Barca loanee acted as something of a right-back and was pictured in Traore’s goal when he went down alone in the box.
David Lopez (6). Concentrated. When required, he cut diligently. He was the most competent defender who rarely failed, even though he was deadly to them.
Blind (6). Doubtful. The Dutchman’s starting abilities were correct, but Traore’s performance put a lot of pressure on him: he was unable to clear the loose ball and give it to the Burkinabe.
Miguel Gutierrez (6). Content. The limping left winger took control of the flank, although things went from high to low. In the second stage, the exhausted one was replaced by Michel.
Yangel Herrera (5). Lost. The Venezuelan midfielder was quite erratic in the final quarter, making a couple of surreal passes into the penalty area. He was the first to be replaced.
Aleish Garcia (6). Engaged. The captain was credited with attempting the set-piece but was unable to connect with any of his teammates.
Ivan Martin (7). Compass. The Bilbao man was the most obvious link between the midfield and the forwards, orchestrating a couple of interesting plays down the flank although failing to break the block.
Tsygankov (7). Brave. The Ukrainian was one of the most active in the attacking zone, converting a clear chance in the first stage and hitting the crossbar in the second.
Savigno (7). Electric. Finding answers in every dribble, the Brazilian needed more shots and a better decision at the last moment.
Dovbik (5). Isolated. The pressure on the Pichichi league was that it was so divided that it had little chance of moving away from Bellingham in the scoring rankings.
Valery (5). Off. He achieved little with his attack.
Porto (6). Disgusting. He tried like the previous days, but this time it didn’t work.
Tony Villa (5). Slow. The winger has not yet regained his form, and after coming on as a substitute he did not change the situation either.
