Real Mallorca 1 - Girona 0
Juan Emmanuel Culio's twenty-first minute deflected free kick was sufficient to give Mallorca their first win of the season against a limited Girona side. Mallorca dominated for most of the game. Moutinho, subbed on the half hour because of injury, grazed the bar soon after Culio's goal. Rodríguez and especially Brandon had second-half chances, but chances going begging were not punished by Girona, who failed to create anything in the second period.

Yes, Mallorca managed their first win of the season but they missed at least 3 open goal chances. Once they have the ball in the penalty area, they get like "deer in headlight syndrome". More shooting and "set piece" practice" is needed - especially taking corners.
