Athletic Bilbao manager Marcelino García Toral is hoping to win the third cup final of his career against Barcelona this Saturday when the two teams meet in the 2021 Copa del Rey Final.
Having won the 2019 Cup with Valencia and the 2021 Supercup with Bilbao last January, Marcelino knows how to beat the Blaugrana in a one-off title decider, and he shared some of that blueprint with the press on Friday.
And it is not surprising that part of Marcelino’s plan to stop Barça is hoping that a certain GOAT isn’t at his best.
