Barcelona Crush Girona 4-1 to Extend Winning Streak to Six Games

Lewandowski Shines as Barca Stay Ahead in La Liga Title Race

Barcelona continued their dominant form in La Liga, securing a commanding 4-1 victory over Girona to maintain their three-point lead over Real Madrid. Robert Lewandowski delivered a standout performance, scoring twice, while Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres played crucial roles in the win.

With this victory, Barcelona extended their winning streak to six games, showing their strength as they push for another league title.

Barcelona Take Control Despite Girona’s Early Threat

Girona started the game with intent, nearly shocking the hosts when Viktor Tsygankov fired a chance over the bar. However, that would be their best moment of the first half, as Barcelona quickly took control.

The young talent Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski tested Girona goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga, who made several crucial saves, including an impressive stop from a Ronald Araujo header off a set-piece. But Girona’s resistance was broken when Ladislav Krejci inadvertently turned Yamal’s free-kick into his own net, handing Barcelona a deserved lead.

Lewandowski Delivers After Girona’s Equalizer

Although Barcelona dominated possession, Girona surprisingly pulled level in the second half. Arnaut Danjuma capitalized on a high press, finishing a well-timed pass from Daley Blind to bring the visitors back into the game.

But Barca’s response was immediate. Robert Lewandowski, the league’s top scorer, restored the lead with a clinical finish, reminding everyone why he remains one of Europe’s most feared strikers.

The Polish forward wasn’t done yet. He added a second goal later, finishing a well-crafted attack orchestrated by Frenkie de Jong. The Dutch midfielder, who came off the bench, provided much-needed stability in the middle of the park.

To seal the win, Ferran Torres came off the bench and scored, ensuring Barcelona walked away with an emphatic victory in this Catalan derby.
