In the first match of the Spanish Cup semi-final, the Basques minimally defeated the “mattresses”.

Athletic Bilbao head coach Ernesto Valverde spoke about the upcoming Spanish Cup match with Atletico Madrid. Yogo words to guide Mundo Deportivo.

“We have a small advantage after the first game, but not the same significant result that the remainder of the match means. The difference is minimal, and it’s our fault to play like this, since the price is a new game, so the scoreboard reads 0:0.

Our style doesn't change much from game to game. “Sometimes the opponent imposes his football as in the other half of the first match, but I don’t think that tomorrow we will be just a different athlete,” Valverde said.

The first game ended with Atletika defeating Rahunko 1:0.

Another Spanish Cup semi-final match Athletic - Atletico will be held today, at 20:30 Kyiv time.
