Athletic Bilbao wins the second round in the UEFA Europa League after a minor with a 1-0 win over Lokomotiv Moscow. The total score of both games was 2-2, but thanks to a goal away the Spaniards continue forward.
Marcelo Bielsa's team play half an hour with a man less, but nevertheless reached the goal, courtesy of Iker Muniain. Goal proved to be invaluable. The team will be the second round in Europe for the first time since season 1997/98. Then Basques fell out of Aston Villa. And if you look at the calendar, the "San Mames" European football will be in March for the first time in 35 years.
The game started very interesting. Another goalie in the second minute the hosts Iraisos had to intervene. Then hit Iraiola beam passed. In the final minute of the half Russians missed. This time hit Kaysedo was not accurate.
After a pause Yorente shoot well head, but by the door. The 60-minute Amorabieta Basque left with 10 men. He was sent off for two yellow cards. Receive them within 5 minutes. First Kaysedo with strife, then rough foul.
However, in 62 minutes Iker Muniain scored the winning goal. Inigo Perez header from a corner, the ball Yorente Muniain and rear beam send it in the net - 1-0. For 19-year-old talent that was 5th goal in European tournaments for Athletic. He ranks fifth in franchise history on performance in European tournaments. For the first time in its history Athletic scored in Europe, with a man less on the pitch.
By the end the Russians never managed to create a position to score and lost. They drop out of the race, and Athletic Bilbao will face the winner of the match Manchester United - Ajax.
