Ten-man Mallorca came from a goal down to secure a 2-1 win against Girona in LaLiga on Saturday with forward Cyle Larin scoring both goals for the hosts.

Donny van de Beek gave Girona an early lead with a volley from a rebound before Mallorca levelled through their Canada forward Larin in the 20th minute after a counter-attack.

The home side were then reduced to 10 men after the half-hour mark when striker Vedat Muriqi was sent off for a foul on Girona winger Bryan Gil but Larin restored the lead for Mallorca after the break despite the disadvantage.

Mallorca provisionally moved up to fifth on 27 points after 18 games while Girona remained ninth with 22 from 17.
