Girona’s Nightmare Run Continues as Late Drama Sinks Hopes Again
The wheels have well and truly come off at Girona FC. What began as a dip in form has turned into a full-blown crisis — the Catalan side, who not long ago graced the UEFA Champions League, are now winless in their last 11 matches.
It looked like the long-awaited breakthrough might finally come against CD Leganés. Girona led for most of the game, seemingly on track to break the curse. But football can be cruel. In stoppage time, Leganés snatched a dramatic equaliser, condemning Girona to yet another heartbreak — and leaving them dangerously close to the relegation zone.
What was once a fairytale season has turned into a nightmare. Confidence is draining, points are slipping, and with the pressure mounting, Girona now face a desperate battle to stay afloat in La Liga. The clock is ticking, and unless something changes soon, the story of Girona’s fall from grace could become one of the season’s most shocking collapses.
