Iñaki Williams exploded to rest. The Captain of Athletic (De Marcos had retired injured) channeled the indignation of San Mamés with the Norwegian Espen Eskas, who decided to whistle in the first half a penalty and expel Vivián after going to the VAR. The monumental anger of the striker was before another controversy played in the second half, when the referee ignored a Maguire grab to Maroan that he could have cost him the expulsion.
Williams headed with Yuri, also very pissed off, to changing rooms when he asks the side to advance. Then he turns and begins to recriminate his decisions to the arbitration trio after a hard first half in which 0-3 went to rest. A marker that was finally the definitive and complicates the rojiblancos their presence in the final of San Mamés.
«We have started very well, the first 25 minutes pressing a lot in a rival area. But we have granted the first goal and from there, plays with lapse and with bad decisions our have penalized us. Nor have we been very lucid, we must not put excuses, ”he reflected after the final whistle. He also thanked the fans for the support received today. «Our people have always supported us. Even losing 0-3 they do not abandon us. There are reasons to trust, to have faith ».
