He Athletic Club has lost 2-1 against Rome This Thursday in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Europa League disputed in the Olympic of Rome. Iñaki Williams has put the Basques ahead, but Angeliño and Shomurodov have traced the result and will have to turn the tie in San Mamés.
The match has begun with the domain of the Italian team, who had the possession of the ball. Meanwhile, Athletic was well placed in the field, cutting the rival’s plays on time and without getting too back. For the rest, a very neutral game has remained.
The first opportunity of danger has been starred by Rome, with a Dovbyk career that has had to see the faces with Vivian. The play has ended with a slip of the Ukrainian player, but Vivian has been injured and had to leave the field. He has replaced walls.
Luck has smiled at the Basques when Baldanzi has reached the area and left the ball behind so that Dybala will send the ball to the crossbar. Athletic has responded with a center of Iñaki Williams that Maroan has finished off, who has left out for little.
But, in general, the goalkeepers have not had too much work in a first part in which they have highlighted the amount of faults.
The Valverde team has started with a more march the second part and the five minutes has opened the scoreboard. In a corner kick, Paredes has finished off his head down and in the Iñaki rebound he has pushed the ball to the net (0-1).
But little has lasted the joy to the ‘lions’. Rom Angeliño has received the ball in the area to put the Igualada (1-1).
Guruzeta and Prados have entered by Maroan and Jauregizo to refresh the team and have uploaded the lines to attack more. In one of those attacks, Unai Gómez has hunted the center of Williams, but the header has left out. In the next, Berenguer, who has entered Nico, wanted to burst a good pass from Iñaki and the ball has gone to the clouds.
In the last minutes, Yeray has felt on Shomurodov and has seen the second yellow cardleaving the team with one less.
Athletic has had to suffer until the end, and at the last moment Shomurodov has scored the Gol de la Victoria (2-1).
