Athletic's Fairy Tale Comeback
Athletic Bilbao's tenacious squad turned the tables dramatically, taking the Copa del Rey crown by storm! After a nail-biting penalty shootout, they snagged their first glittering trophy since '84, putting an end to a frustrating 40-year dry spell. The emotions spilled over at Seville's bustling La Cartuja, where die-hard fans witnessed their heroes, led by Ernesto Valverde, rewrite history against Mallorca.
The Shootout That Silenced Doubters
When pressure peaks, legends are born, and Athletic's own Alex Berenguer stepped into the limelight, slotting the decisive spot-kick to claim a 4-2 shootout triumph. The pillars of this victory were the safe hands of young prodigy Julen Agirrezabala, who kept calm and saved crucial penalties. As the final whistle blew, the crowd went wild—a long-awaited celebration for a club embedded in tradition, proudly showcasing Basque talent. Only the mighty Barcelona have hoisted the trophy more times than Athletic, a testament to their enduring spirit.
