3-0: Real’s blow crushed Athletic

If Real is one of the stylish teams in Europe and has more than 38,000 members, with 3,000 more on the waiting list, it is because it has the ability to star on nights like this. In these times of some post-pandemic anxiety and inflation, he is a constant generator of excitement and joy among his fans, across an entire province. There were moments where they danced against Madrid and Inter, they had a snack against Granada and Getafe, in June they qualified fourth and got the ticket for the Champions League, but beat Athletic, crushed their eternal rival, passing them in the classification and giving them such a slap in the face of reality, to show who is, at the moment, the best team in Euskadi, is something else. Football orgasm for Realzale.

The purposes of Le Normand, hut and OyarzabalOf course, but it was a victory for everyone, for the 15 who came out, the 38,000 who stood, the 705,000 inhabitants of Gipuzkoa and, of course, Imanol, the one that made this Real into a junkie of ambition and success. What a great Saturday night, great derby day, with exemplary attitude from the fans. Let Salzburg pass.

And the victory had even greater value as it came in the fifth game of a grueling seven-match series, the third match in seven days for Real. Yes, leave out the delicate number of injuries Tierney and Le Normandbut Imanol He will definitely arm his army on Tuesday. Another fight.

seven changes

coach made seven changes compared to the match three days ago in Valencia. Strong and necessary rotation. The main surprise, more than having Sadiqis the absence of Mikel Oyarzabal, the usual red-and-white punisher. He had 90 minutes too fresh in his legs. At Athletic, he returned Nico Williamsas expected: they save it for this match.

It is a very derby derby: of contact, of collision, of leaving the leg in disputes, of constant protest to the referee, but perhaps football is missing, especially in the early part of a certain realistic hierarchy, but of torpor from the goalkeepers, who hardly need to intervene. Perhaps for this reason, in a cold Remiro It was difficult for him to hit the mark with his teammates in long deliveries. The injury slightly changed the course of the Gipuzkoans in a sprint Tierneywhere there was silence at the Amara coliseum.

spicy end

After analyzing videos of the opponent and their propensity to score in the early stages, Athletic presented their most cautious version and let a Real team that was troubled at both ends do their job. hut and barren, very naughty to their peers. With the Williamsthe visiting weapons of mass destruction, without sniffing the leather, Real can and knows how to kill in the first attacking action of the match.

Yes failed to clear, Yuri He couldn’t get out in time and left the ball dead on his body so that’s it Le Normand performing a volley. The purpose of the mask.

Anoeta danced backwards, the Donostia sky thundered with two rockets and Athletic responded with an attack from Williams pregnant at risk. Iñaki He couldn’t even handle the ball of powdered sugar his brother sent him. Nico. Some of their hearts stopped at txuri urdin.

Hut purpose

Aquarius at half-time renewed the energy of the players and caused the derby and, more specifically, Real, to let their hair down. Question of adhesion. A double failure of Traore together Nico and of Merino together Iñaki This resulted in a very clear opportunity for arch enemy Txuri Urdin. The old man’s shot, which hit somewhere, was inches from the post. They didn’t call a corner. Three minutes later, hut He made an entire province happy in the second. The long ball Le Normand he combed it Merino to the Galician magician braisewho focused himself on his head and served the golden ball to Sadiq. The Nigerian only had to go through and intercept his pair as the Japanese delivery man came from behind with gusto. Fifth notch hut in eight games. And in Valencia he did not play. He celebrated by pretending to be lame and shaking his back.

Madness with 3-0

The following minutes were real paroxysms in the stands. Dale Cavese gained even more followers in celebration of the second, new one Remiro can be prevented Purify shorten the distances. Ovation for the triple change of Imanol and first minute scorer for the Champions League Andre Silva.

Traore strong winner from above, Zubimendi make a magical pass Laudrup with the left hand! and the captain scored after dribbling Simon. This time, the crowd enjoyed a classic: Who didn’t bounce was Athletic Bilbao! More than 30,000 jumped.
