The season for the Women's Athletic is over which, despite having closed the campaign with a bittersweet taste for the overwhelming 6-0 defeat against Barça in the last League match, has completed a competition that has exceeded all expectations. A couple of years ago the rojiblanco club launched a future project with the aim that the team was again among the largest, betting on youth and the quality of Lezama.
A project that was raised to obtain results at medium-long term, but that nevertheless has paid off much earlier than expected. The good work of which until now was the coach, David Aznar, added to the high level of the very young players has made Athletic ended the season in fourth position and very close to entering the play off for the Champions League. In addition, the lions have competed from you to you with the greats, being even very close to scoring in front of Barça in the match that was played in San Mamés. Giant steps compared to previous years and generate great illusion with respect to what is to come.
For now, next season Aznar will not continue at the head of the team. A news that has personally surprised me and that has caused a bittersweet farewell for the good work of the Mr. these two years in which he has been at the head of the club. Marta Unzué and ITSASO Miranda on the other hand, they also disconnect from Athletic and, for the moment, it is unknown if there will be signings.
The bulk of the team continues and, seen what is seen this year, is close to getting great things in the near future. A team that, in addition to having a great individual and collective talent, forms a large human group and that, as with its male counterparts, has a deep Athleticzale feeling. A true privilege that occurs in a few teams and that makes this a more valuable group if possible.
