Las Llanas, second stop in the Copa

Athletic emerged victorious from an intense Bizkaia derby. A magnificent night and a reminder of the power of local football

Proper football. The football of yesteryear with muddy socks and water-logged pitches. Athletic did their job, beating Sestao River at Las Llanas to advance to the next round of the Copa. Tuesday night's duel had everything: intensity, commitment, passion and a touch of old school football.
