5-3.
5-3 after 2 matches in the last 16 of the Europa League.
2 matches that were - as a lot of long-term fans said on Twitter - the best matches we've played in years. Decades, even.
2 x 90 minutes of pure football, of fighting spirit, of endless motivation, of tireless running, of amazing technical and tactical skill.
2 x 90 minutes of tireless support by the rojiblanco fans at the stadium who, not even at Old Trafford, could be outsung or outchanted by the rival crowd.
2 x 90 minutes of 11 (+3) Basques of a rough average of 23 years and a total cost of around 23 million Euros playing against a team of expensive, well-paid international superstars.
Against Manchester United.
Manchester United, who played the final of the Champions League last season. Who are at the top of the English league right now.
Manchester United, who were taught a lesson in football TWICE, thanks to the collective effort of a great team and over 40,000 "lions" standing by them the entire time.
3-2 in Old Trafford.
2-1 in San Mamés.
We'll continue dreaming.
