Barcelona secured a dominant 4-1 victory over Girona on September 15, 2024, continuing their perfect start to the La Liga season. The young sensation Lamine Yamal was the star of the match, scoring twice in the first half. His first goal came after dispossessing a defender and calmly finishing past the goalkeeper. Seven minutes later, he struck again, following a well-placed pass from Robert Lewandowski.
In the second half, Dani Olmo extended the lead with a clinical finish, and Pedri added a fourth with a simple tap-in after some brilliant buildup play. Although Girona managed to score a late consolation goal through Cristhian Stuani, Barcelona’s win was never in doubt. The match did have some drama towards the end, with Ferran Torres receiving a straight red card for a dangerous challenge on Yáser Asprilla, but it did not affect the outcome.
This victory marked Barcelona’s fifth consecutive win in La Liga, keeping them at the top of the table with 15 points, ahead of Real Madrid and Villarreal
