After his side succumbed to a 3-0 defeat against Atletico Madrid in the Europa League, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554 Bielsa stepped up and took full responsibility of the poor performance.
Athletic Bilbao could end their season perfectly, if they managed to win against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday. The Copa del Rey finalists also manage to qualify for the second-tier European tournament, but failed to be at their best as they lost to the Madrid-based
club.
In the wake of his side’s defeat to fellow-Spanish team, Atletico Madrid, Marcelo Bielsa stepped up and took full responsibility for the poor performance shown by his team.
Bilbao, this season, have shown that they are one of the bigger teams in not only http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011, but also in Europe.
This season they managed to reach the final of the Copa del Rey and they also qualified for the final of the Europa League.
Moreover, their road to the final of the European competition was not at all easy. Bielsa’s men faced the likes of Manchester United and Schalke 04, but they still managed to get past such huge hurdles and made it to the final, being labelled as favourites
to win it as well.
However, the Argentinean coach, Marcelo Bielsa, who is often hailed as one of the best tacticians in Spain, told the press that it is his fault rather than the team’s and now they will be concentrating on the Copa del Rey final against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 later in
May.
While speaking to the reporters, Bielsa said:
 “We didn’t expect a game like this, it was very different from what we had prepared. We’ll have to get back on our feet for the Copa del Rey final but time will not make any difference in that sense,” he said.
“I think this is a moment to reflect on the future, not to feel sorry about ourselves. I take full responsibility for the game we have played tonight. There has been an enormous difference between what we wanted to do and what we finally did.”
“Yeah I am disappointed as you said we didn’t play a good match and obviously it is my responsibility because I am responsible for the group of players that we didn’t meet the target.
“That increases my disappointment, because with my http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 comes the responsibility.”
Barcelona and Bilbao will face each other in the Copa del Rey final on May 25th, with Barcelona being the favourites to win the tie.
