Celta Vigo mount stunning second-half comeback to defeat Girona 2-1 at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi.

Celta Vigo secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over Girona at the Estadio Municipal de Montilivi on March 1, 2026. Ferran Jutglà’s equaliser and Vitor Reis’s decisive strike propelled the visitors to a vital three points.

Girona entered the match in 12th position in La Liga, seeking to improve on their recent form of one win in five matches. Sixth-placed Celta Vigo, conversely, aimed to solidify their European aspirations following a strong run of two wins and a draw in their last three outings.

The home side started brightly, controlling early possession and creating several half-chances. Girona’s sustained pressure paid off just past the half-hour mark.

Vladyslav Vanat broke the deadlock in the 35th minute. Axel Witsel provided a precise assist, and Vanat fired home to give Girona a deserved 1-0 lead.

Before the interval, Celta’s Ferran Jutglà received a yellow card for a foul in the 42nd minute. Girona went into halftime with a narrow, yet deserved, advantage.

The break offered Celta Vigo a crucial opportunity to regroup. Manager Rafael Benítez, or whoever is managing Celta in 2026, likely demanded a response and a more attacking approach to find a way back into the contest.

Celta Vigo emerged with renewed determination after the restart. Their efforts quickly bore fruit, as they pushed for an equaliser.

Ferran Jutglà levelled the score in the 58th minute. Óscar Mingueza delivered a perfectly weighted assist, which Jutglà expertly slotted past Paulo Gazzaniga to make it 1-1.

Both teams then turned to their benches to inject fresh energy. Celta brought on H. Alvarez in the 59th minute, while Girona responded with T. Lemar (64′) and B. Gil (65′).

The decisive moment arrived in the 70th minute. Vitor Reis found the net for Celta Vigo, completing the turnaround and giving the visitors a 2-1 lead they would not relinquish.

A flurry of late substitutions and yellow cards marked a tense finale. Girona’s Claudio Echeverri (81′) and Arnau Martínez (89′) were booked, as was Celta’s Williot Swedberg (89′) for time-wasting.

Despite controlling 57% possession and registering 15 total shots, with 7 on target, Girona struggled to convert their opportunities, evidenced by an expected goals (xG) of 1.63. Celta Vigo, with an xG of just 0.6 from 6 total shots (5 on target), proved more clinical, largely due to goalkeeper Ionuț Radu’s 6 crucial saves.

This vital away win sees Celta Vigo climb further up the La Liga standings, now sitting comfortably in 6th place with 40 points. Girona, despite a spirited effort, remains in 12th place, facing renewed pressure to find winning form in their next fixtures.
