It crashed the Athletic of Madrid in front of the solid defence of Valencia in Mestalla. Tie to zero and the rojiblancos remain with five points, the same that the Real Madrid -that has empatado to one in the Bernabéu-. The ones of Simeone carried the voice singer of the meeting and could mark in more than an occasion, but were not hit neither Vietto neither Correa.

It accused definitely the absence of Griezmann the Athletic, whereas Valencia neither offered too much, although it went back to show that it is a very organised team and worked by Marcelino. A party in which the defences stood out more than the attacks and anybody was able to mark a goal. 

This start of League is him atragantando to the team colchonero, that will try to change the dynamics when it debut in Wanda Metropolitan, that is ultimando his works so that the fans can enjoy finally of football there.

Opportunity for the Barça

This day can be very positive for the Barcelona. For the moment, his two rival maxima have empatado. The ones of Valverde already took advantage of the tie of the Real Madrid against Valencia (2-2) winning to the Alavés in Mendizorroza (0-2), and now will have to do also the same in the next days.

After losing the past League by the fault of regularity, is fundamental that the Barcelona group was able to keep it this year. To win this afternoon to the Espanyol would add already nine points, four more than the two rival maxima -in principle- by the title of League.
