The victory in the match of the 17th day of the Spanish championship over Elche allowed Athletic to rise to ninth place in the standings, but it became a “pyrrhic” for the team coach Gaiski Garitano.

The club’s management decided to part with the 45-year-old specialist. The name of his successor has yet to be announced.

“The club thanks you for your dedication and hard work,” says the official Athletics website. “They were not afraid to lead the team in a difficult period in its history, they led it in 89 games and knew how to lead the final of the Spanish Cup. We wish them the best in the future. “

Curiously, the last time Athletic fired a coach during the season was immediately after the victory almost 35 years ago: on January 19, 1986, after defeating Erchules (1: 0), Javier Clemente lost his position – reported by ORTA.
