At home, Huesca has lost to Rayo Vallecano and Real Sociedad and seemed on its way Sunday to a third straight home defeat at El Alcoraz stadium here, reports Efe.
The game's early stages came down to a midfield battle with Girona controlling the ball, but neither team was able to threaten their opponent's goal.
VAR stole the limelight twice, once in each half, and in both cases made referee Cordero Vega change his call.
The first took place 37 minutes into the game, when Vega initially awarded Girona forward Cristhian Stuani a free kick on the edge of the area, but after VAR review, gave him a penalty kick instead, which Stuani successfully converted.
Having conceded the goal, Huesca went for the equalizer and came close in the 39th minute, when Argentine midfielder Ezequiel Avila fired on target but Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bounou blocked his effort.
Nearly halfway through the second half, VAR stepped in again, but this time in favour of Huesca.
Verga had awarded Huesca's Spanish midfielder Moi Gomez a free kick on the edge of the area, but changed it to a penalty after VAR review.
Huesca's Gonzalo Melero successfully converted from the 12-yard spot, drawing his team level and staving off another home loss.
