Athletic Club Secures Vital Draw Against Real Sociedad

Athletic Club narrowly avoided a fifth league defeat this season at San Mamés, managing to secure a draw against Real Sociedad. The team successfully found a way to equalize, ensuring that their losses do not overshadow their victories. This point is invaluable for both morale and pride, as the team continues to grapple with ongoing challenges.

Galarreta, who played a pivotal role by scoring, commented on the difficulties the team has faced. He stated, “At times, things get complicated. We are experiencing significant issues with injuries, and while we have had our share of bad luck, there are also aspects we must correct, which we are actively working on. We must pull together to overcome these challenges.”

Simón, the goalkeeper, expressed his satisfaction that Galarreta was the one to score. “We often joke about whether his top speed will be the best on the team, but the effort he puts in is remarkable and serves as an example for everyone. With that goal, he has transformed into a figure akin to Maradona,” he remarked. Furthermore, after the red card incident, Simón noted, “We went all in after the expulsion,” emphasizing that the team remains united and committed to following the coach’s strategy. “We know that if we stick to our plan, we will achieve positive results.”
