Barcelona regained their three-point cushion at the top of La Liga with a commanding 4-1 victory over Girona at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.
An own goal from Ladislav Krejci (43′) put Barça ahead before Arnaut Danjuma (53′) briefly leveled for Girona. However, Robert Lewandowski restored the lead with two clinical finishes (61′, 77′), taking his league tally to 25 goals. Ferran Torres (86′) sealed the win with a late strike.
The victory was a crucial response to Real Madrid’s comeback win over Leganés, ensuring Hansi Flick’s side remain in control of the title race. Barcelona, now on a nine-game La Liga winning streak, turn their focus to Wednesday’s Copa del Rey semi-final against Atlético Madrid, with the tie poised at 4-4.
