Is incredible how this Atletico Madrid is wasting the chance to be on top of the league, always when they have a little chance waste it agains X team, on this day against Bilbao who is a very hard team to beat on San Mames, but anyways they need to overcome this issue if they want to become champions.
You said it right, Athletic is known to be a team very hard to beat in their home field. About Atlético, there are still a lot of matches to be played, we have Liga for a long time, you know; if you are a fan, try to enjoy the journey.
I still don't understand how people underestimate Athletic Bilbao but, boy they are good! Every big team want Nico Williams but he's loyal to the club. I'm not surprised by this win at all, they are playing better and deserved that win. Guruzeta scored his 8th goal this season. Even though Sancet missed a penalty that wouldn't be a problem for Bilbao.
I like how Athletic Bilbao play with local players only but I can't stop thinking about it. Would they be better off if they played with foreign players as well? Or is the secret of their success playing with these players? It's hard for them to be a champion but they are always in top 8 places in the league and always be a trouble to other big teams.
