I’m sure they remember it. He also went in May, three years ago. Sevilla won at Pizjuán one to zero. It was the last game of the season. A draw was enough for Athletic to qualify for UEFA. It was the 92nd minute, and Gaizka Garitano ordered to Inigo Martinez to go up to finish off a corner.

The European option is complicated after the draw against Valencia in Bordalás, another team that has become a monument to anti-football, after passing through Getafe. And he has the courage to complain: “Everyone criticizes my teams.” It’s just that the ball is always the most advanced of your players, majete.

In each dispute, in each contact a Valencianist collapsed close to rigor mortis. They are not interested in the ball, it is like an object that is suspected of being able to explode, as if it were punctured. 22 fouls in the Cup and as many in the League. It is the record in San Mamés. For your resume. And that they did not play anything, what if not.
