The annual encounter between journalists covering Deportivo Alavés and Athletic Club once again brought together media professionals, this time at the Lezama facilities. In this third edition, the press from Álava secured a 2-4 victory on pitch 8 of the red-and-white facilities.
Despite being a friendly match, it was played with great intensity and featured memorable plays. Jon Abascal was the standout player, earning the MVP award for his decisive actions. Two editors from Gasteiz Hoy, Álvaro Díaz Verdasco and a colleague, were present, and the final goal of the match was scored by Gasteiz Hoy.
The profession in a relaxed atmosphere, with sport as its banner… and looking forward to the next derby.
After the final whistle, the traditional 'third half' took place, where players from both teams shared laughs, anecdotes, and snacks at the Lezama facilities' bar. This rivalry, which has become a recent tradition, was supported by sponsor DIGI and marked the first victory for the Álava press in three encounters.
