At the 45th + 3rd minute of the match, the referee awarded a penalty to the home team.
Vanat’s first shot was parried by Espanyol goalkeeper Marko Dmytrovych, but the Serbian goalkeeper left the goal line prematurely, which resulted in the 11-meter penalty being awarded again.
On the second attempt, the Girona forward made an unerring shot, sending the ball into the bottom corner of the goal with his left foot. This goal was the only goal in the first half – the teams went into the break with a score of 1:0 in favor of Girona.
