CD Leganés - Athletic Club

Leganés 0 Athletic Club 0

CD Leganés and Athletic Club played out a goalless draw at Butarque. As was the case on the previous matchday, goals were conspicuous by their absence, although this time away from San Mamés.

The home side had more chances, especially in the early stages of the game. Our team did not adapt either to the opponent or to the conditions of the pitch, but the times that Machis found himself in front of Iraizoz, either due to the goalkeeper’s intervention or lack of accuracy, did not result in any goals.

Curiously, the only goal of the game was scored by Raúl García, also in the first half, but the referee interpreted that there was a foul that few spectators saw.

The game became more evenly balanced in the second half, with both teams using a similar style of play, although the clearest chances were once again for the home side. On the negative side of the balance, two debatable yellow cards for Beñat and Aduriz, the fifth in each team’s season, and which prove, in case it wasn’t clear, that the referees also make mistakes, as do the rest of the footballing world.

To finish the first half of the season, on Sunday we are visited by Atlético de Madrid, another opportunity to try to get above thirty points in the table.
