Celta Vigo 1-1 Girona: Aspas scores late as visitors´ winless run goes on

Girona’s are now without a win in four LaLiga matches after Iago Aspas’ late goal held them to a 1-1 draw at Celta Vigo on Sunday.

Girona, surprise third-place finishers last season, dominated possession in the early stages before taking the lead in the 38th minute when Yangel Herrera rose high to head in Daley Blind’s cross.

Celta responded well but initially struggled to test Paulo Gazzaniga in their search for an equaliser, with Girona offering little in terms of threat at the other end.

The hosts eventually found a way through in the 81st minute – Williot Swedberg laid the ball off to Aspas, who made no mistake with his composed finish.

Girona sit 12th in the LaLiga table on nine points from eight games, while Celta moved to ninth place with 10 points ahead of the remaining weekend fixtures.
