Athletic Club - SD Eibar

Athletic Club 3 SD Eibar 1

Athletic Club has defeated SD Eibar 3-1 in San Mamés. Beñat, Iñaki Williams and Muniain have been the authors of our goals, while Enrich has scored for the guest team.

Important and deserved victory to continue looking up. The first half has been balanced, with few occasions, although an amazing free kick by Beñat put our team ahead on the scoreboard.

In the second half out team took the initiative, but things haven’t been clear even after the 2-0 work of Williams after an amazing solo gallopade. Enrich has shortened distances, but Muniain sentenced in the last minutes.

A triumph that has come in a day that we played without several players of the usual starting XI and with a team formed by ten players of Lezama and an eleventh, Balenziaga, who debuted in First with our colors. Also, the day of today will serve to write down another debut, Asier Villalibre’s one, striker of Bilbao Athletic, number 604 to debut with our jersey in the official match.

Now its time to travel to Vienna and try on Thursday to opt for the first place of the group in the UEL.
