Dovbyk is already one of the greatest

The most expensive signing in Girona’s history is starting to take its first steps. Artem Dovbykthe protagonist of this story, scored a crucial double against Almería to complete the team’s comeback, before achieving the decisive hand that closed the party of Montilivi.

Since September 27, a historic date due to the team’s sole leadership in the First Division, the striker has not found a goal. With the visit of Real Madrid cut and a Cádiz closing in behind Nuevo Mirandilla, the Ukrainian found no space.

It was good for him to disconnect and join his team to regain confidence and not prolong the usual scoring anxiety that many forwards in the competition are subject to. Dovbyk He found purpose again with the eastern team and returned to Girona to, with a small margin, present his candidacy again.

The small margin of rest is not an obstacle for Michael I trusted him again. Despite being 0-2 down in the 20th minute of the final matchday, the forward managed to spoil the party for the Andalusians and scored two goals in less than five minutes. To show the tie, he teamed up with a central defender with multiple connections, Daley Blind. The double wall with the Dutchman is the appetizer for the subsequent meaning and the drama yet to come.

So it is. Once Ortiz Arias again gave permission for a new center kick from the rivals, Dovbyk He waited, after a steal, for a delicious pass from Yan Couto between the center backs. Then the Ukrainian closet threatened again and again until it found the loophole, deceiving KaikyCésar Montes and Iddrisu Baba, the three who couldn’t handle the ‘Gironí’ striker.

Artem Dovbyk He has five goals in 10 games, becoming the third top scorer in the competition, behind Bellingham and Griezmann. He scored 0.5 goals per game and one goal per hundred minutes, signs of a forward who is starting to show signs of adaptation and striving to be among the best forwards in the League.
