Thank you very much for joining us in the broadcast of the game. It has been a pleasure. We wait for you in future appointments. Do not miss it !!! Until then, receive a cordial solute.
The end of the game has been open, the Valencian team again enjoyed more approaches, but without showing too much effectiveness. In the end, distribution of points and to think about the following commitments. Without going any further, Marcelino's team will play the first leg of the Cup semifinals against Levante next week.
Athletic Club and Valencia add a point that does not serve much to either team. The local team carried the weight of the game in the first act, although those of Javi Gracia were more incisive in attack and had more chances. The lions went ahead with an own goal and from that moment on, the team that had to go in tow until they managed to tie the result through Gabriel Paulista.
FULL TIME !!! Distribution of points in a tremendously open game in which it seems that Valencia deserved something more.
Time is running out. Athletic cannot now and it seems that they are beginning to think about a draw. The team is seen to be somewhat more physically whole, something normal too, considering that they have not had the wear and tear of playing the Copa del Rey this week.
THREE MINUTES OF EXTENSION !!! We are now entering the final stretch of the meeting …
Third substitution in the ranks of Valencia. Gonçalo Guedes leaves the field and is replaced by Alex Blanco.
Maxi Gómez's launch from outside the area was very high. Another cartridge that wastes Javi Gracia's set …
Extremely open game finale. Exchange of blows between two teams that are not satisfied with the draw and are looking to take the three points.
Uros Racic !!! He volleyed from the edge of the area and the ball went to a corner kick after bouncing slightly off a local defender.
Vesga !!! He looked for the squad from the edge of the area after a collective play by his team. The ball went over the crossbar of Domenech's goal.
Less than ten minutes for the conclusion of the game and a lot of equality on the San Mamés grass. Anything can happen…
Let's remember that Patrick Cutrone makes his LaLiga debut with Valencia today after having played this season for Fiorentina and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Carlos Soler has been booked for catching and cutting a counterattack led by Unai López.
Cutrone !!! He had all the goal for him, but he bit him and the ball ended up being repelled by the local defense.
Very fast Jaume Domenech, coming out at the feet of Iñaki Williams and avoiding his shot !!!
It will be necessary to see how the game is rebuilt, especially Athletic Club, after having made the five changes in just ten minutes.
The fifth change in the ranks of Athletic has been that of Yuri Berchiche for Mikel Balenziaga.
Marcelino exhausts the quota of changes. The fourth was that of Iñigo Lekue for Ander Capa who has retired from the field with discomfort.
Íñigo Martínez has been booked after committing a foul from behind on Correia.
FACT. Gabriel Paulista has scored two goals this season in LaLiga, both with a header. He has scored more goals this season (2 in 16 games) than in his 130 previous games in the competition (1 goal).
Marcelino's third change was Mikel Vesga for Unai Vencedor.
Jon Morcillo leaves the playing field and Óscar de Marcos enters.
The Che team has tried in every possible way, but it has been in a set-piece and header action, perhaps the most difficult way to harm the Bilbao defense, as they have ended up finding their way to the goal.
Gabriel Paulista's head butt was immeasurable. He rose inside the area and put the ball, headlong, plunged, far out of reach of Unai Simón.
And triple substitution now at Athletic. Oihan Sancet leaves the field and is replaced by Unai López.
GOOOOL OF VALENCIA !!! GABRIEL PAULISTA GOAL !!!
The second change in the ranks of the Valencian team has been that of Musah by Daniel Wass.
Assists Carlos Soler Barragán
Double change in Valencia to start. Vallejo leaves and is replaced by Patrick Cutrone.
Too many interruptions now. It was being a white collar game, although now there are more fouls taking place and that is leading to not much continuity in the game.
There is a lot of traffic on the band. Several players finish the warm-up and in a few moments we will begin to see the first changes of the game.
Wass header !!! The play, however, was later annulled by a jump foul by the visiting player.
Berenguer has been booked and receives the first yellow card of the match.
Jaume Domenech's stop !!! He has literally saved his team by deflecting a very dangerous pitch from Oihan Sancet.
Trombone exit of the lions. The truth is that Marcelino's team has already attacked more in just three minutes of the second period than they did in the entire first.
And now Unai Vencedor !!! Headlong and dive, looking for the base of the Domenech goal post. He barely left.
Williams !!! Slalom of the local attacker until he got into the Valencian area, but he was not too fine in the launch and the ball finally went to a corner kick after bouncing off a defender.
START THE SECOND PART !!! Victory by Athletic Club at the beginning of the second period.
It will be necessary to see how Javi Gracia can rebuild the game after the blow his players have taken just before the arrival of the break.
Everything seemed doomed to a goalless draw after the first forty-five minutes, but Athletic found themselves with a gift in the form of an own goal from Hugo Guillamón. They had barely managed to disturb the lions and in fact they completed the entire first period without finishing off against the goal of Jaume Domenech. Valencia did have two or three approaches of some danger in the boots of Maxi Gómez.
END OF THE FIRST PERIOD !!!
The whole che was keeping a better tone. However, just before the break is Marcelino's team with the goal award.
Very bad luck for Valencia !!! Lateral cross by Morcillo and Hugo Guillamón, in his attempt to prevent Iñaki Williams from reaching the shot, ended up getting the ball into his own goal.
GOOOOL OF ATHLETIC !!! IN OWN DOOR !!!
Guedes !!! The attacker Che didn't think twice, but his powerful launch went too high. Still, Javi Gracia thanked him from the bench for the attempt.
Time is running out for the home team. Unsuccessful first half for the moment from the offensive point of view for the local team, without being able to disturb hardly any danger in the goal defended by Jaume Domenech.
Gaya !!! First shot on goal of the game. He was too heeled and it seemed that he was going to cross, but he ended up firing at the body of an Unai Simón that ended up repelling the launch.
It took too long for Morcillo to put the pass deep before Iñaki Williams' unchecked and the local attacker ended up incurring offside.
Valencia hardly have possession of the ball, but the truth is that, without having to mature the game too much, it is finding more clairvoyance when it comes to finding effective access routes to the rival area.
Maxi Gomez !!! Now head and again after a cross on the right wing of Correia. The ball narrowly left, attached to the post of the Bilbao goal.
Another center too old for Athletic !!! On this occasion, it was Ander Capa who, after reaching the baseline, threw the ball into the area, but with too much power, without any opportunity for a teammate to pick it up.
We have already reached the halfway point of the first period and we have not seen a single auction between the three suits by either of the two contenders.
After a good start from Athletic, now the situation is much more balanced after Valencia is beginning to arrive with some fluidity in the domains of Unai Simón.
Maxi Gomez !!! He finished off in a semifallo directly outside after a great cross down the right wing from Correia.
Little by little the team led by Javi Gracia is waking up and is gaining more and more prominence in offensive actions.
Providencial now Unai Núñez to avoid a shot inside Maxi Gómez.
Guedes tried from the front !!! First attempt in attack of the Valencian team. The Portuguese player was emerging, looking for a shooting position, but his shot was blocked by a rojiblanco defender.
The Athletic players are not finding precision in the last pass. Now the one who made a lateral center to the area too past was Morcillo. Even so, Marcelino's men continue to try in this initial stretch of the game.
Iñaki Williams has been hurt. It was after a stomp from Thierry Correia in the dispute for a split ball.
The first minutes are being for Athletic Club !!! Total dominance at the moment of the lions, ready to impose a high pace of play from the beginning of the match.
Berenguer !!! He entered the area before the passivity of the visiting defense, but he made a mistake in the center, too powerful and without finding a finisher.
THE PARTY BEGINS IN SAN MAMÉS !!!
Without a doubt, this will be a special game for a Marcelino who is reunited with his old team after his abrupt departure last season due to disagreements with the board. The current Athletic coach has not lost in his last three matches against Valencia in LaLiga (2V 1E), without his team receiving any goals in them, his best streak without defeat against the Ches in the highest category.
Many changes in the starting eleven that Marcelino puts into the fray today after last Thursday's cupbearer match against Betis. Raúl García and Iker Muniain leave and there are up to seven changes with respect to that alignment. They only repeat Unai Simón, Iñigo Martínez, Dani García and Berenguer.
XI DEL VALENCIA: Jaume; Thierry, Paulista, Guillamón, Gayá; Wass, Racic, Soler, Guedes; Vallejo and Maxi Gómez.
ATHLETIC XI: Simon; Capa, Núñez, Iñigo Martínez, Balenziaga; Berenguer, Dani García, Vencedor, Morcillo; Sancet and Williams.
We already have the official line-ups presented by both teams. Let's go with it !!!
For its part, Valencia will try to put ground in between with respect to the relegation zone and give continuity to the victory achieved in the last league match against Elche. Those of Javi Gracia have not achieved two consecutive victories so far this season.
At home, Athletic have only lost one of their last eight games against Valencia in LaLiga (3V 4E), the last played, 0-1 in September 2019, and they have not managed to score in the last two; He has never linked three without scoring at home against Ches in the top flight.
The Bilbao team wants to continue the good run of results and after qualifying last Thursday for the semifinals of the current edition of the Copa del Rey, the objective now is to shore up their situation in the qualifying table and consolidate in the upper zone.
In the che team, Javi Gracia repeats the same initial team with which he beat Elche by the minimum in his last league match.
