With a single victory over her last twelve games, Girona had something to be frightened before receiving Alaves, 17th from Liga. However, the match started well for the locals, who were enterprising, like Arnaud Danjuma whose dry strike passes to the right of the goal of Alaves (22nd). More enterprisingly, Yaser Asprilla's teammates will not be rewarded for their efforts, missing too much precision in the opposing goal.
And finally what was to happen happened. On a perfect opening by Jon Gudidi, Carlos Vicente comes to beat Gazzianiga opposite, giving the advantage to Alaves (0-1, 61st). After this goal, Girona will try a lot to return to the match, but will continue to miss the target, like this strike in the last minutes of Danjuma which fled the frame quite largely (84th). With this success, Alaves is three points ahead of the red zone, and returns four lengths from his opponent of the day.
