Valencia make it four wins in a row with exciting Girona success

Forward Ferran, 19, latched on to a through ball and rounded goalkeeper Bono to score in the 90th minute and give Valencia the lead for the third time in a thrilling game at Montilivi.

The dramatic win took Valencia to 39 points, six off fourth-placed Getafe and two behind Alaves in fifth with 11 games left.

Portugal international Goncalo Guedes scored his first goal of the season to put Valencia ahead in the 14th with a smart first-time finish but Girona defender Jonas Ramalho headed the home side level midway through the first half.

Valencia captain Dani Parejo netted early in the second period but Girona's Uruguay international Cristhian Stuani equalised with a penalty in the 83rd after Facundo Roncaglia was sent off for two yellow cards in the space of 10 minutes.

Girona then sought a winner and left themselves open at the back, making it easier for Geoffrey Kondogbia to pierce their high defensive line with a pass which Ferran made the most of.
