SSC Napoli - Athletic Club

SSC Napoli 1 – Athletic Club 1

Athletic Club has drawn one goal each in Naples in the first leg of the Champions League play-off. Iker Muniain scored in the first half and Higuain scored the equalizer in the second half. An open match, with a great atmosphere in stands -600 rojiblanco followers included- full with intensity and emotion and that leaves everything up in the air for the second leg in San Mamés.

Our team had difficulty getting into the match, but they recovered and controlled the game until the locals equalized. From that point on, Napoli enjoyed its better occasions, even though Athletic also had its options in extra time.

Everything has yet to be decided and we can’t say it’s a bad result in view of the match on the 27th in San Mamés, where most of the 50,000 throats cheering on will be rojiblancas. And in the meantime the Liga begins in Malaga; almost nothing.
