The captain of the Athletic Club, Iker Muniain, ruled that no one “surpasses them in ambition, enthusiasm and heart” before the final of the Spanish Super Cup that the Basque team will play tomorrow, Sunday at 7:30 p.m. Spanish time (6:30 p.m. GMT) at the King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). ).
“The sensations are similar to those of the edition that we won last year. The team arrives in a good level of form, with a mentality of maximum ambition,” added the Pamplona midfielder in this regard.
Regarding the options that Athletic Club has to win in the final, Munyan considered that “the fact that it is a final is an incentive that makes the matches more closed because there is usually more respect than in a League match”. Thus, the captain assured that if Real Madrid “want to win this title, they will have to do things very well”.
During the month of December, Athletic and Madrid faced each other twice and both ended with white victory. “We lost both games, but beyond the result they were very even and we had chances to win, especially at the Santiago Bernabéu”, he considered Muniain.
“Sinking your teeth into Real Madrid is always difficult, it doesn’t matter what state of form you’re in, it’s always very complicated because the ability you have in all your lines is obvious. They are the clear favourite, but last season we were also the least favorites for the title”, he warned a little more than 24 hours before the final of the Spanish Super Cup.
