We remember the victory at San Mamés in the Basque derby played in October 2016
Today, on our YouTube channel, we remember Athletic Club’s triumph by 3 goals to 2 over Real Sociedad in the Basque derby corresponding to the 8th day of LaLiga Santander 2016/2017 played at San Mamés.
Despite Athletic’s chances in the first half, it was Real Sociedad who came to half-time with an advantage on the scoreboard, thanks to Zurutuza’s solitary goal after the first quarter of an hour of the game. Argentine goalkeeper Rulli saved his team in the first half.
In the second part, justice was done to the arrivals of both teams, and Muniain’s goals in the 51st minute, Aduriz in the 60th and Williams in the 72nd gave a comfortable advantage. Iñigo Martínez reduced distances in 83′ and with that 3-2 the derby ended.
