Athletic Club - Real Madrid

Athletic Club 0 Real Madrid 0


The result of the match Athletic Club – Real Madrid has been 0-0. It is the third consecutive draw: 1-1 Villarreal, 2-2 Deportivo and 0-0 today. In addition, it is the fifth occasion in League in which our team does a clean sheet.

Hard match, disputed, without concessions and that had additional conditions that made it even more difficult. For example, and among others, the fact that the opponent repeated for the first time the starting eleven with which he won the final of his last Champions League won, the possibility that the Madrilenians had to cut back points with the lead, the fact that our team was in a delicate qualifying situation and with the recent failure in the Cup and that the last three visits of Real Madrid had resulted in defeat.

Finally, with more clear chances in the first half than in the second, good defensive work, courage, overcoming adversities in the form of injuries (Iturraspe and De Marcos) and the capacity for suffering in some difficult phases of the match, have made possible that today we added a point. All this in a San Mamés that has lived the atmosphere of great occasions.

And from one end to another, with a match to life or death to seal the European passport in Ukraine, where we will have to deal with the Zorya and the cold.
