Eibar fall 0-2 against Sporting in Cup
The team led by Mendilibar will look to overcome the tie in Ipurua
SD Eibar lost 2-0 at Real Sporting in the first leg of the Copa del Rey round of 16, played at El Molinón. The los armeros set did not have good day. Although they started with the intention of dominating the game, the Calavera injury in the 8th minute, and Ramis's injury, after half an hour of play, had diminished the initial plans of a strong game plan.
In the match they reached the break with a goalless draw. However, within ten minutes of the restart Djurjevic had put the Astuarians ahead, after taking advantage of a series of errors in the Eibar defense. Then Eibar had tried to go for the comeback, but was not successful and when the game was approaching the end, Neftali made the final score 2-0.
Despite the tough defeat, Eibar will look to overcome the tie in the return match, which will be played in December in Ipurua.
