Back to back UCLChampions Real Madrid suffered a shocking defeat in the hands of La Liga newcomers Girona and are now eight points behind league leaders Barcelona.
Midfielder Portu back-heeled in the winner in the second half, four minutes after ex-Middlesbrough striker Cristhian Stuani’s equaliser.
On-loan Manchester City full-back Pablo Maffeo and Portu both struck the woodwork for the home side.
Isco had given Real a first-half lead by tapping in from close range.
The result leaves Zinedine Zidane’s side in third place after 10 games behind unbeaten Barca and Valencia, while Girona collected just their third victory of the season.
This is Catalan side Girona’s debut season in the top flight of Spanish football, having been founded in 1930, and Sunday saw a squad made up mainly of loan players and free signings claimed the biggest victory in their history.
On the backdrop of Catalonia being stripped of its autonomy for declaring independence, a number of supporters held up flags inside the 13,500-capacity Montilivi Stadium in support of their region.
