Cádiz recovered its hallmark against Athletic

Cádiz won a very important victory for the yellow team in San Mamés. And it is that Friday against Athletic Club de Bilbao were not just three points or get out of relegation. It was much more. Álvaro Cervera’s team needed to regain confidence after leaving many points along the way. It was also the day that the yellows were reunited with their best version.

The Yellow Submarine longed to be his old self again. And the Cadistas fans too they missed that team that did their homework as much as they could, getting ahead on the scoreboard by pulling speed and, later, the defensive solidity managed to tie the victory. And that’s what happened yesterday.

Even the Cadiz team could go to rest with more than one goal difference. Alberto Perea had a couple of occasions and, also, ‘Choco’ Lozano had a header that Unai Simón caught. In the second half, Cádiz had to carry out a great exercise of defensive solidity to get the three points. The set pieces were being the great threat in recent games, but Álvaro Cervera’s men did not fail against Athletic.

The whole team played a great game and the yellows seem to have found their way to stay. Álvaro Cervera’s Cádiz was once again the recognizable team of always. The recovered confidence can be key so that the Cadiz team continues to reap points in the remainder of the season, which is still a lot.
