In their first Champions League appearance, Girona almost won a historic point. They excellently held PSG to a draw until the 90th minute. However, at the decisive moment, Girona fell painfully.

The cause came from goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga's mistake. From a low cross from Nuno Mendes, the Argentine goalkeeper clumsily let the ball pass between his legs. The ball rolled into the net in the pain of Girona.
Goalkeeper Gazzaniga has become a laughing stock on social media after Girona suffered a painful defeat. Here are some comments on Twitter:
"Football is a cruel game."
"Gazzaniga is unleashing the Tottenham energy (falling at the decisive moment) inside him".
"A tear-jerking mistake by Gazzaniga".
"Too painful for Girona. Gazzaniga was so careless."

Speaking to the press, Michel Sanchez did not intend to blame Gazzaniga after this match: "Mistakes are part of the game. In this match, he made three incredible saves. Mistakes can be forgiven. We just cannot forgive a negative attitude. I take responsibility together with Gazzaniga.
The goal really hurt but we played well in this match, despite Girona not creating many chances to win."
After a peak season, Girona is showing signs of decline this season. In La Liga, they are only ranked 10th with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in 5 matches. This will be an extremely difficult season for Girona when they are competing in many arenas. In the past, German club Union Berlin has plummeted when competing in the Bundesliga and Champions League. That makes fans worried about Girona.
