Barcelona, who were without the injured Frenkie de Jong, needed to win to prevent Real Madrid from sealing the La Liga title.
At half time, Barcelona were ahead 2-1 thanks to Andres Christensen and Robert Lewandowski, who scored either side of a Artem Dobvyk strike.
In the second half, though, Blind and Girona rallied with a double from Portu and a Miguel Gutierrez effort seeing them come out 4-2 winners.
It not only means that Real Madrid have the title but Girona are now second and assured of a spot in the Champions League next season. It has been a great campaign for Blind and co.
