The suitable… victim to escape even further from trouble was found by Catches.
Against the of tails (and without a win for 17 matches), the Basques achieved a valuable victory with 1-0.
A well-placed penalty kick by him Rioja in the 51st minute, it was enough for the home team to continue with the big double over her Seville (and the draw earlier at home Society).
So holding her rival without joy from the… September 1stthey opened at +8 their difference from that and that line of relegation.
