Avai
Avai put in a disciplined and competitive display, matching Athletic Club for much of the encounter and keeping the hosts at bay until the closing stages. Their defensive structure held firm for 88 minutes, but a lapse near the end proved costly. While Avai were able to avoid conceding multiple chances and only received one yellow card, their inability to find a goal or create decisive moments in attack ultimately left them empty-handed.

Tactical Analysis
With no detailed formation data available, both teams appeared to prioritize defensive solidity and discipline, as reflected in the low-scoring nature of the match and the minimal card count. Athletic Club's late push for a winner suggests a tactical shift towards attacking substitutions or increased risk-taking in the final stages, which ultimately paid off. Avai maintained their shape and discipline for most of the match but failed to transition effectively into attack, leaving them vulnerable to a late sucker punch. Set pieces and defensive organization were key themes, with both sides largely cancelling each other out until the crucial late breakthrough. The lack of clear attacking statistics points to a match where tactical caution outweighed offensive ambition until the closing moments.
