I am not surprised by this result, Atletico Madrid has not been consistent throughout this season, so that when they meet a comparable opponent, the Atletico Madrid team is unable to develop its performance.
I admit that Athletic Bilbao this season has been quite extraordinary and their success in getting to the final is quite natural, now I think they will be quite close to the trophy this season.
but to be honest, the 4-0 aggregate result hit Atletico Madrid. It was unexpected even though Bilbao's chances of winning were quite big, but I didn't think it would be a landslide advantage over Atletico Madrid.
It seems like there is an opportunity for Bilbao to shift Atletico Madrid from the top 4 positions in the standings. Bilbao's performance is quite convincing at the moment and this is an extraordinary achievement after several years of only being in the middle of the La Liga standings.
This match caused me to experience gambling losses. Because in the match between Atletico Madrid and Bilbao, I personally chose Atletico Madrid in my bet. However, it turns out that Atletico Madrid suffered a crushing defeat against Bilbao.
So in this match what I saw was that Atletico Madrid actually had many opportunities to score goals. Because if you look at ball control, Atletico Madrid is superior to Bilbao. However, unfortunately the Atletico Madrid players on the front lines were unable to take advantage of this opportunity properly. So in essence, Atletico Madrid's attackers did not open up more space. The reason is that the Atletico Madrid players made a lot of passes but none of them resulted in a goal.
So with the results of this match, Bilbao will face Mallorca in the Coppa Del Rey final. Apart from that, I also feel that Bilbao can definitely beat Mallorca and win the Coppa Del Rey trophy.
And for this week's schedule, Bilbao will face Barcelona.
