It was central defender Copete who put Mallorca in front. On a corner, and after a ball which bounced off a Majorca player, the ball arrived at Copete who shot the Girona goalkeeper (0-1, 34th). Behind, the Catalans struggled to get back into the match, and the Balearic team could even have doubled the lead on several occasions. At the end of the match, Girona still had a few situations, via Couto and Portu in particular. But it is indeed a defeat for Michel’s team, which misses a great opportunity to reconnect with Real Madrid and has 3 defeats in the last 4 championship matches. Worse, Barça could overtake him in the event of a victory against Athletic this evening.
