The images of Asier Villalibre playing the Athletic anthem with his trumpet before the amused gaze of his teammates will be one of the most special memories, in a red-and-white key at least, of the Super Cup final against Barça. Raúl García, a true veteran, also has his most representative moment in the achievement of this title. He shared it with another illustrious ex-lion, Aduriz.
“I had a talk with Aritz talking about the coincidences of life. There was a curious fact with the two goals that I scored against Madrid and another that he had scored in the previous Super Cup. It can happen and you can get the title ”.
The information referred to by Raúl García was provided by MisterChip (@ 2010MisterChip) on the occasion of the semi-final between Real Madrid and Athletic. “Athletic's penultimate goal in the Spanish Super Cup: Aduriz against Barcelona in 2015 at 34 years and 187 days. Athletic's penultimate and last goal in the Spanish Super Cup: Raúl García against Madrid … at 34 years and 187 days”.
The Navarrese, coincidence aside, assured that “those of you who know me already know that I always want more. For me it was a nice challenge to be able to get another title with a club
different, with a new club. I place a lot of value on what has been achieved and after the years that I have been here it was a bit what we lacked ”.
