Girona vs Real Sociedad

Girona and Real Sociedad shared a 1-1 draw at Estadi Montilivi on Matchday 36, with veteran substitute Cristhian Stuani writing the headline by making La Liga history off the bench. Jon Martín put Real Sociedad ahead in the 28th minute, finishing from a Sergio Gómez corner. Girona couldn't respond before the break, but coach Michel sent on Stuani at halftime. The 39-year-old Uruguayan — the oldest foreign player to score in La Liga this century — delivered in the 66th minute via a Martínez Arnau assist, making it 1-1. No red cards or penalties, though both sides picked up multiple yellows. The draw nudges Girona one point clear of the relegation zone — a slender cushion with two games to go, but a lifeline all the same. For Real Sociedad, settled in eighth with European football already banked via their Copa del Rey triumph, the two points dropped matter little — though letting a lead slip at Montilivi wasn't in the script.
