As part of the 4th day of La Liga, Girona, third at kick-off, hosted Las Palmas, seventeenth. Undefeated since the start of the season (1 draw and 2 wins), the Blanquivermells could come back to two small lengths from Real Madrid in the event of a victory. For his part, the promoted was still looking for his first success in this 2022-2023 exercise. At Municipal de Montilivi in ​​Girona, Michel Sanchez Muñoz’s men thought they would take the lead after half an hour.

Perfectly served, Cristhian Stuani deceived Alvaro Valles but the Uruguayan striker finally saw his goal disallowed for an offside position (30th). Clinging to the break, Girona pushed to find the fault on the return from the locker room but despite the appearances of Pablo Torre or Yan Couto, the score of this meeting hardly changed. It was finally necessary to wait for the last moments to see Portu deliver his team (1-0, 88th) and offer victory to the locals. In the standings, Girona temporarily drops to second place. Las Palmas is still 17th.
