What a match! Mallorca, playing at home, edged out Girona 2-1 in a nail-biting La Liga encounter.
Mallorca started strongly, with goals from C. Larin (51st minute) and V. Muriqi (20th minute). Girona, though, were a force to be reckoned with, drawing first blood in the 7th minute with a goal from D. van de Beek. The game was a high-octane affair, with both teams dominating possession at different stages, and showing glimpses of attacking brilliance. Girona held 69% ball possession, but Mallorca's determination and clinical finishing led to their victory.
The crowd was buzzing with excitement. An early red card for Vedat Muriqi (32nd minute) after a VAR intervention, however, significantly changed the dynamics of the game. Despite the setback, Mallorca showed great resilience and were quick to adapt, maintaining their intensity.
Exciting substitutions and tactical tweaks from both sides added to the drama of the final stages. Some key moments were tense, with several yellow cards awarded. In the end, Mallorca’s tactical adjustments and home advantage proved decisive.
Overall, it was a hard-fought victory for Mallorca, demonstrating their determination and team spirit under pressure.
