Girona regain LaLiga lead after win over Barca

Girona lead the LaLiga with 41 points after 16 days of play, following an away 4-2 victory at Camp Nou.

Artem Dovbyk and Miguel Gutierrez scored in the first half for Girona. Robert Lewandowski equalized the first goal, netting for the first time in nearly a month.

Valery Fernandez and Christian Stuani added two after the break as Ilkay Gundogan scored another for Barca, making it 4-2.

Barca are fourth on the table with 34 points, the same as third-placed Atletico Madrid who are behind Real Madrid who have 39 points.
