Athletic Club 1 – Osasuna 0

Athletic Club is back on the victory track after deservedly defeating Club Atlético Osasuna by 1-0 thanks to the goal by Aduriz in the first half. The rojiblancos have had more occasions than their rivals, but they were greeted with Andrés Fernandez’ interventions, even though the Navarrese did smash three shots on the posts, one almost involuntarily and the other two from free-kicks.

On the positive aspect, in addition to the victory, a third match without conceding goals in Liga, the 100th Liga match for Muniain and Aurtenetxe’s comeback after his injury. On the contrary, the latter substituted an injured Castillo and Gurpegi was booked with his fifth yellow card which will keep him from playing against Valencia on 20 October after the Liga break. Meanwhile, the victory is well welcomed.
