"It was a hard-fought game, we didn't play the way we wanted to," Bilbao manager Ernesto Valverde said after their defeat to Atletico.
"You're never happy when you lose. But in general I liked the display because, as in every fixture so far, we never backed down.
"We went for the game right from the start despite the difficulty. This is what it's all about. Everyone leaves everything they've got on the pitch. It's a long fight and now we have to go again for the next one."
