In case it was not clear to Osasuna, Mallorca and Espanyol, in case there was any doubt after his double against Real Madrid, Alexander Isak confirmed that s, that a star was born. Under that appearance of a stringent striker and half-done, hide a soccer player who in the last three weeks has claimed to be one of the best and most decisive scorers of LaLiga. Isak, with the invaluable help of For your, he endorsed the Basque derby, completely submitting Athletic in 40 minutes of absolute fantasy. Goal, assistance and a waste of technical details of crack that left in San Sebastin the three points in liza in the Basque derby.

Eight goals have scored the Swede in the last six games, a run within reach of very few. And nothing like crowning her in the most anticipated game of the season for the fans 'txuriurdin', leaving also from the bench. It was perhaps a somewhat decaffeinated derby, marked by the trajectory in the Cup of both teams and the physical waste they had to do to eliminate Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but it is a Basque derby after all. And this Sunday is undoubtedly named after fire.

Both coaches clearly looked sideways at their Cup commitments next week when making their lineups, but above all he did Garitano, conditioned without a doubt to have a day less of margin. In the eleven of the Athletic, the only fixed holders were Simn, Capa and Yeray, accompanied by habitual relays and others very devoid of rhyme, such as Balenziaga, San Jos and Kodro. In the alignment of the Real, however, only missed Odegaard (in the stands with discomfort), Isak, Elustondo and Monreal.

With these wicks, it was not difficult to intuit what the dynamics of the game would be. The ball was a strange and even annoying object for an Athletic whose only plan of attack was to send balonazos towards the head of Kodro, embedded in the midpoint, to later improvise. So it was during the first half hour of overwhelming dominance of the Royal Society, which, however, lacked depth to do real damage. Only he managed to put together a good shot, the work of Portu, which Simn took well below, exhibiting his great state of form.

The combination of Capa and Lekue by the right band better somewhat the color of Athletic at the end of the first half, taking advantage of the fact that Real seemed to lack a spark to give continuity to their game. Despite everything, Garitano was aware that his team was following a path that led him nowhere, so after the break he entered through Muniain. 15 minutes later, four other changes had already been made: Isak and Januzaj entered Real and Williams and Dani Garca in Athletic.

The hard entry of Muniain

Both coaches had a prize, since their substitutions served to change the face of the game. Isak's entrance, in particular, was overwhelming. His first 10 minutes were portentous, a torture for the defense of Athletic, unable to stop him. Two slightly deflected shots, one after a hat in the noses of YerayThey served as welcome. Culminated his brief exhibition reaching the bottom line after a delicatessen before Dani Garca and giving away the first goal of the game to Portu, as attentive as always inside the area.

At that time, he felt that Real had practically in his pocket, because Athletic didn't seem to have the ability to react. What happened, however, was that the rojiblancos tied the game at six minutes. It was in a fast backlash that Muniain sent the ball to the uncheck of Williams at the back of Le Normand. The forward made the pass good with an excellent definition that caught Remiro midway out.

The definitive goal, how not, was going to mark Isak. Seven to the end, Januzaj I sent a center to Portu that was also left by the Swede. Simn presumi of reflexes in his first attempt, but the second went inside. Any option to draw that Athletic had dissipated after the expulsion of Muniain for a criminal entry to the ankle of Oyarzabal. He wanted to apologize for the Athletic captain, but the damage was already done. Both his counterpart of the Real and his own team, who could no longer avoid leaving the Reale Arena with a defeat.
