European football: Ronald Araujo edges Barcelona past Girona at the last
"The substitute Ronald Araujo scored three minutes into added time as Barcelona secured a 2-1 win over a stubborn Girona in La Liga. Barcelona took the lead in the 13th minute, when Pedri received Lamine Yamal's quick ball into the box and ran across the defensive line before dispatching a low left-footed finish. Yet Axel Witsel's spectacular bicycle kick off Arnau Martinez's header levelled for Girona seven minutes later."
"In Germany, Bayer Leverkusen's Alejandro Grimaldo scored twice in the first half to guide them to a 4-3 victory in a thrilling clash at Mainz, stretching their record unbeaten run on the road in the Bundesliga. Leverkusen, who host Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday, moved up to 14 points in fifth place with their third straight league win while also extending their unbeaten league record to 37 consecutive away matches."
Barcelona secured a 2-1 La Liga victory over Girona when substitute Ronald Araujo scored three minutes into added time. Pedri opened the scoring in the 13th minute from Lamine Yamal's pass, and Axel Witsel equalised seven minutes later with a bicycle kick following Arnau Martinez's header. Barcelona pressured heavily in the second half and were rewarded by Araujo's late strike; he removed his shirt and was booked while coach Hansi Flick was sent off for two yellow cards. In the Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen beat Mainz 4-3 as Alejandro Grimaldo scored twice, helping Leverkusen extend a 37-match unbeaten away run and move to 14 points.
