From a machine… Ibanez, they knew Valverde’s Bilbao in the 116′ and sent Osasuna to the final!

One of the biggest surprises of recent years in the Spanish Cup It is a fact!

The amazing Osasuna, who is making an excellent run in the league as well, fighting for the exit to Europe, did her… miracle, as, with a Pablo Ibanez’s unimaginable goal in the 116th minute of overtimethey knew Ernesto Valverde’s Athletic Bilbao in the Basque derby of “San Mames” and with 1-1 qualified to Copa del Rey final just about second time in her story!

It is worth noting that this was the first goal at first-team level for the 24-year-old defensive midfielderwho, of course, he drowned in the hugs of his teammates and the technical team after the goal was achieved, but also at the end of the second semi-final. Ibanez, moreover, who moved up to the “big” team this year, making his debut in La Liga last August, had so far in his career only goals with Osasuna B and amateurs Multivera and San Jose! And tonight was written with golden letters in the history of the club of Pamplona, ​​which counts 102 years of life.

We remind you, in the first game of “Sadar”, Osasuna had won by a score 1-0so with the draw tonight she got the “ticket” for her big date May 6th in the “Cartouche” of Seville.

There, the Pamplona team is now waiting, the… really hard, since he will face either Real Madrid or Barcelona. The second semi-final between the two hated rivals is held in the evening of Wednesday (5/4, 22:00) in Barcelona, ​​with the Catalans having the lead after the 0-1 first leg at the Bernabeu. The first and last time that Osasuna had attended a Spanish Cup final was the 2005when he had lost the cup in extra time to his Betis Lorenzo Serra Ferrer.

In the “San Mames” match, however, no one could have predicted such a development! On the other hand, however, perhaps it should, since once again the unwritten law of football: Whoever misses the chance, concedes a goal. The hosts dominated the game, especially from the 20th minute onwards, and in the 33rd minute they found the much-coveted goal to equalize the score of the first leg with the usual suspects, Iniaki Williams. A goal, which Ernesto Valverde celebrated furiously.

In the second 45 minutes, Bilbao continued at the same tempo, with Osasuna waits in her half of the court and the ball, either to… whistles next to Sergio Herrera’s goalposts or stop on him. Valverde could see his team creating but missing out. However, made his first change in the 81′, since the picture of the game showed that Athletic, sooner or later, will score a second goal. However, this never happened.

In extra time, Bilbao continued to dominate, but it was talkative and everything looked like penalties would decide who would qualify. Ibanez, however, was about to make history. In the 116th minute, in a counterattack by Osasuna and one of its few visits to the home team’s goal, the 24-year-old caught a great shot, “froze” San Mames and sent the Pamplona team to the final!
