The Ukrainian national team forward broke his streak without goals and set a new club success for the Catalans.
The match against Betis in the Spanish Championship, which, let’s remember, Girona won 3:2, was doubly special for Artem Dovbik.
First, the forward of the Ukrainian national team scored a double, thus breaking his eight-match goalless streak.
And secondly, the striker went down in the history of the Catalan club. According to Opta, Dovbik became only the second player in Girona’s history to score 15+ goals in a La Liga season.
The first such player was Cristian Stuani, and the 37-year-old Uruguayan did it twice (21 goals in the 2017/18 season and 19 goals in the 2018/19 season).
