With this victory the Athletic strengthens its European position in the table and is moving up to Champions League positions waiting for this tenth day to conclude.
Espanyol, out of relegation at the end of the day Whatever happened to her, she received a serious blow in which she could not even react, since in the sixth minute she was already losing and by the half hour mark she had no chance of even tying.
With four casualties in each team, the most relevant being Sancet and Puado because Unai Simón’s was since the summer, the match quickly turned in favor of Athletic, who took advantage of the first corner to open the scoring.
He did so by taking advantage of his first corner, which Nico placed on the penalty spot and finished between his knee and his shin after the center surpassed the local aerial defense without any visiting player even touching it.
Another play between Nico and Guruzeta threatened some parakeets They tried to shake off the blow with several counters from the right between Jofre and Kral that did not come to fruition.
A high shot from Berenguer announced the Navarrese’s intentions and the beginning of the end for Espanyol, who received the second and third in just two minutes, the 20th and 30th.
Both with the same protagonists, Berenguer and Iñaki Williams. The first served two Ballon d’Ors and the second took advantage of them forcefully.
By half an hour, Athletic had solved the procedure and Nico wanted to join the party with several colorful actions which provoked expressions of admiration from the public. Especially a solo against the world that ended with a shot bitten into the hands of Joan García.
Manolo González changed three players at half-time looking to improve the weak first half and Pere Milla, one of the new ones, looked for the 3-1 with a header perhaps too far away to put Agirrezabala in serious trouble.
And the 4-0 soon arrived, in the 55th minute, in a great individual action by Berenguer, who had received a local combination from De Marcos in which the visitors lacked the necessary tension.
From there to the end more changes, refreshments for the Williams and one last goal, the honor of the visitors. A direct free hit from the front to a Tejero squad.
