Athletic has gone back to Real Oviedo and wants to look up in the League (1-2)
Ilyas Chiara has overtaken the Asturian team in the first half; in the second, Athletic has improved, Mikel Jauregizar has scored a good goal in the 1-1, and Oihan Sancet, from the penalty point, has marked 1-2.
Athletic beat Real Oviedo, 1-2, by Carlos Tartie, on the 24th day of the EA Sports League 2025-2026, on Sunday afternoon. Ilyas Chiara beat Real Oviedo, in the 30th minute, Mikel Jauregizar scored the 1-1, in the 58th, and Oihan Sancet, in the 71st, scored the 1-2.
Athletic has not played a good game, but it has won a valuable victory. In this league it has been imposed for the third time outside San Mamés and it should be noted that the Real Oviedo has not lost since October as a local team. The men of Ernesto Valverde have three consecutive games without losing, with seven points in them, and they want to look up in the ranking with the dangerous positions a little further away.
In the first part, Athletic has not been right on the lawn. With Yuri and Sancet on the team, Real Oviedo has been superior to the Basque team. The local team has scored the first goal of the match in the 30th minute through Ilyas Chairman, a move in which the footballer of the Asturian team has been faster than the back of the Valverde team and Unai Simón has been unable to avoid the goal.
In the second half, Robert Navarro has replaced Nico Serrano on the right of the Athletic attack. Immediately, in the 58th minute, Mikel Jauregizar has scored the goal of the tie: the midfielder of Bermeo has made a good playand, from the edge of the area, has shot very well and sent the ball to the nets of Aaron's goal.
The goal has given confidence to Athletic and, in the 71 minute of penalty, the red-white team has scored the second goal. It has been done by Oihan Sancet; the ball has touched the hand of Real Oviedo defender David Carmo within the area. There have previously been two controversial plays: a possible penalty of Paredes in an offensive play in which the ball has gone out ahead and a hand of Iñigo Ruiz.
The Biscayan team thus clings to the favorable marker and takes the victory; in the last two days, Athletic has pocketed as many wins.
