Cristhian Stuani was a nightmare for Barcelona

The Uruguayan equalised and then bludgeoned in the goal that sent Girona ahead

Cristhian Stuani became a nightmare for Barcelona on Sunday in the 2-2 draw with Girona at Camp Nou. The Uruguayan forward, vital for Eusebio Sacristian's side, showed his nose for goals.

Lenglet equalised by darting in ahead of the snoozing Gerard Pique and helpless Sergio Busquets to beat Marc-Andre ter Stegen.

Then shortly after the break he appeared at the right moment to reach a lose ball and rifle it into the top corner after Ter Stegen repelled Portu's effort.

 

Stuani came into the game with three goals, like Luis Suarez, but leaves with five, winning the battle of the Uruguayans.
