Real Madrid faced off against Girona at the Estadi Montilivi earlier this evening as they looked to earn a good result away from home in La Liga. Los Blancos made a poor start to the game and conceded two quick goals as Valentin Castellanos netted a brace inside the first 24 minutes of the contest. However, Vinicius Jr. found the back of the net in the 34th minute as Carlo Ancelotti’s men went into the half-time break 2-1 down on the scoreline.
Castellanos completed his hattrick in the 46th minute before killing the game off by scoring again just after the hour mark. Lucas Vazquez scored a late goal as Real Madrid crashed to a poor 4-2 defeat on the road.
