Girona are relegated from Spain’s La Liga just over a year after competing in the Champions League, with their drop confirmed following a draw with Elche. The result ends Girona’s stay in the top flight and follows an earlier period in which the club qualified for Europe’s premier competition. Both reports state that the relegation is confirmed through the outcome of the match against Elche and that it occurs only one season after Girona’s Champions League campaign. The Athletic further frames the timeline as two years after Girona’s Champions League qualification, emphasizing how quickly the club’s league status has changed. BBC Sport highlights the contrast between Girona’s Champions League participation and their subsequent relegation, presenting the situation as an immediate fall from the level of European competition back to the second tier. Overall, the accounts agree on the key points: Girona finish the season outside the safety positions, the confirmation comes after their draw with Elche, and the relegation happens after a recent Champions League appearance.
