Girona FC Extends Unbeaten Run with Dramatic 95th-Minute Equalizer
Girona FC secured a stunning 1-1 draw against Getafe CF on Monday night in LaLiga action, extending their impressive unbeaten streak with a heart-stopping finish. Vitor Reis’ downward header in the 95th minute salvaged a point for the Catalan side after they fell behind in the second half.
Late Drama at Montilivi
Getafe appeared to have snatched the victory when Luis Vazquez broke the deadlock in the 59th minute, finishing clinically from Juan Iglesias’ delivery. The visitors, still winless in seven LaLiga games, seemed poised to claim all three points as Girona pressed forward without success in the closing stages.
But Girona’s persistence paid off spectacularly in injury time when Reis directed a powerful header past goalkeeper David Soria, triggering celebrations among the home supporters at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi.
Girona’s Resilient Form
The result showcases Girona’s ability to recover from difficult moments. Coming into the match, the team had won just one of their recent home matches—a record of three wins, three draws, and one loss across their last seven contests at their stadium. Despite going down to an organized Getafe defense, the side demonstrated the character needed to fight back.
Earlier in the month, Girona defeated RCD Espanyol 2-0 on January 16 and claimed a 2-1 victory over Mallorca on January 4, demonstrating their competitive form across the campaign.
What’s Next
Girona will look to build on this momentum as LaLiga continues its season. The draw maintains their positioning in the standings while denying Getafe the victory they desperately needed.
