He Athletic closed the preseason with a bitter aftertaste, with defeat in the final of the Euskal Herria Kopa before the Real society. There were no goals in the ninety minutes in Urritxe and an eternal penalty shootout decided for the txuri urdin. Those of Angel Villacampa, except in the final stretch of the first half, and they could well give up before reaching eleven meters, however they managed to resist.
The Real started more plugged in and got it right through Franssi after a corner, but was offside. Valdezate He had it to release the score in a one-on-one in which he decided to sting the ball from the edge of the area, he did not find a goal. Those of Natalia Arroyo placeholder image they handled the ball more. He Athletic it was more direct. Eizagirre he was close to scoring a goal with a long shot that repelled the crossbar.
The Bilbao team woke up after half an hour, especially thanks to the ruptures of Erika behind the defense. It was undetectable, both on the right and on the left. It overflowed up to three times, although it could not punish the Gipuzkoan spaces. In the first one she was stopped by Maitane, who saw yellow, then the Navarrese sinned generously and in the last attempt her shot went wide.
Erika stayed on the bench in the second period and the Athletic barely stepped on rival field. Chance? The rojiblancas narrowly escaped several times. For example in 53 ', when Moraza appeared at the far post to cover the shot of Palaces. Amaiur Sarriegi He entered the 66 'to give some morbid to the final. It should be remembered that this summer changed Lezama by Zubieta.
The Real squeezed in the final quarter hour. Bathrooms, Tejada, Franssi or Amaiur They had good options that they could not specify. Eizagirre he did damage in the Zurigorris ranks from the midpoint, from there he generated for incorporations from the wings. The Gipuzkoan squad once again had it very clear. Naroa Uriarte she became a savior just half a meter from the goal line when she was Franssi coming up from behind.
The best opportunity for those of Villacampa came at the discount with a right hand of Valdezate from 25 meters that Quinones diverted to corner. It was not removed because the referee decreed the end, the penalties would decide. If the goals were resisted in the ninety minutes, in the eleven meters the success was almost total. 14 throws made consecutively until the error of Eunate on the fifteenth. Quinones guessed the intention and then Bathrooms gave him the Euskal Kopa to Real. Last test of a long summer. He Athletic already puts the focus on the league start, next weekend he will receive the Sports in Lezama.
