Take A Bow

After the restart, both teams went at it. One side was looking to equalize, whilst the other did its best to keep the scoreline the same.

As the clock ticked past the 42-minute mark, the intensity at San Mamés reached a boiling point.

Athletic Bilbao, buoyed by their home crowd, looked eager to draw level before the half after Correia's goal put them on the back foot.

Valencia, however, was determined not to concede just before the break as it would shift the momentum to the opponent side.

In the 43rd minute, Athletic Bilbao found their chance. Nico Williams received the ball near the left wing and drove at Correira with purpose.

A quick change of pace and burst of acceleration saw him skip past the defender. Correia shouted, raising an arm to tell the referee something but the referee didn't pay him any mind.

Nico Williams got to the byline and delivered a sharp low cross into the box.
