It does some days suffered a hard hit with the elimination of the Champions to hands of the Juventus, and this weekend the discontent continued for the Athletic of Madrid with a defeat that also can leave him sentenced in LaLiga. The Athletic Club imposed in Saint Mamés and left the title to favour of the FC Barcelona, that could reinforce his leadership after the trip of the 'colchoneros'.

The so many of Iñaki Williams and Kenan Kodro were an obstacle insalvable for the men of the Cholo Simeone, that were, once again, far of his best version. In the sportive there was little discussion in a group that assumed again his errors, but that felt excessively punished by the referees of the clash.

The edict visitor finish outraged by two possible penaltis that did not go at least reviewed by the VAR, since Jaime Latre did not see them in direct and his assistants neither warned to the main referee that his actions could need a correction. Both sucedieron when the tie to zero still commanded in the marker, so, with more reason, finish deciding the commitment.

The first played took place in the injury time of the first-half, in a crash in which Yeray Álvarez demolished to Antoine Griezmann. The central was to cover to the French forward and in first instance touched the balloon, but the Frenchman benefited of the rebound and was in good position when the one of Baracaldo launched again the guadaña and this time did not contact with the leather, but with the leg of his rival.

The athletic protests did not motivate any correction by part of the trencillas, something that, equally, occurred in the second time. Álvaro Morata had to shoot to door and Mikel Saint José prevented it to him with the foot, although the midfield player did not touch the spherical and if it blocked the finish of the tip. Again jaleo and the 'Profe' Ortega expelled, but again without review of the technology and with referee's silence in The Cathedral.

To round the suffering of the Madrilenian, the first goal of the Athletic could be preceded of a fault, in a stole of balloon to José Giménez in which there is more than a slight contact. The defender controls too long and sees prejudiced by a pressure to the limit of the legal, and afterwards remains protesting in an offensive that finish with the so much of Williams.

The Real Madrid already benefits of the arrival of Zidane

All the contrary that to the Athletic him sucedió to the Real Madrid, that in referee's questions already has seen benefited by the return of Zinedine Zidane. The 'flower' of the marsellés goes much more there of the luck, something that remained clear against the Celtic of Vigo after an expulsion forgiven to Gareth Bleat and an offside goal that went up the 1-0 to the electronic, precisely, instants after the VAR left without validity a so much illegal of the whites.
