Athletic Club - Málaga CF

Athletic Club 3 – Málaga CF 0

Athletic Club has defeated Malaga CF by 3-0. The match has been dominated from start to finish and the outcome was determined in the beginning of each period. Soon after kick off, Aduriz headed in a corner taken by Susaeta; at the beginning of second half the protagonists have been the same: a cross by Susaeta and a shot on goal to his liking by Aduriz and, finally, Herrera rounded off the match.

Our team now hoards 62 points and, in the worst of cases, it would never fall lower than seventh place on the table. We are six, ten and eleven points above our closest rivals with fifteen points still at play. That is to say, that there is still a whole lot of work to be done so that mathematics can give the team the tranquillity to remain in fourth position. Certainly, today’s match has been another very important step towards that objective.

And on Sunday we visit FC Barcelona, another opportunity to try to add points.
