Girona secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Valladolid on Friday, marking a significant turnaround after a challenging stretch of six winless matches in La Liga.
The win propelled Girona up two spots to eighth place in the league standings, while Valladolid remains in a precarious position, sitting second from the bottom with just three victories out of 18 games played this season.

Valladolid has struggled defensively, yielding more goals than any other team in the league. The trouble began for them in the 31st minute when a shot from David López outside the box took a deflection, misleading goalkeeper Karl Hein to score the opener.
Just eight minutes later, Hein could only get a hand on a header from Abel Ruiz, allowing Girona to extend their lead with Ruiz finding the net.

The final blow for Valladolid came in the 80th minute when Danjuma scored from close range, sealing the 3-0 defeat for the visitors.
This match concluded a tumultuous week for Valladolid as Brazilian owner Ronaldo Nazário announced his intention to sell the club and pursue a role as president of the Brazilian Football Confederation.

Valladolid’s former mayor has publicly criticized Ronaldo, accusing him of failing to deliver on earlier commitments, and fans have voiced their discontent regarding his management of the club.
