Quite similar names, the same red and white shirt colours, and the underdogs’ status compared with the Spanish giant duo Barca-Real. That’s the story of Athletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid, who battled tonight at the San Mames stadium. And despite Diego Simeone’s team being ten points clear of the rivals on the La Liga table, the Basques fought bravely and reached a deserved 2-0 victory.New stars in Ghana’s sky – beware of the Williams brothersThe credit for that goes to a magnificent Inaki Williams, one of the most remarkable players in the entire La Liga, whose unique life journey was brought to you recently by our reporters.My parents walked across Sahara barefoot while my mom was pregnant I could fulfil my destinyFirstly, he was to blame for the early opener, as he found a pocket of space on the left and seized the opportunity to fire on Oblak’s goal. The ball deflected, hitting Hermoso on its way and ended in the back of the net.If that first was a result of luck, then the second one, officially assigned to Williams, was his 100 per cent. It came from the spot after Iker Muniain was trumped on the very edge of the box in front of referee Matheu Lahoz. Williams’ execution was coldblooded, leaving Oblak with no chance of stopping it and saving his side from a deserved defeat.Find someone who cheers for you as enthusiastically as this elderly gentleman cheers for Iñaki Williams. pic.twitter.com/cpUF98jtVI— Jonas Adnan Giæver (@CheGiaevara) April 30, 2022 In the last six league games, Simeone’s warriors scored only two goals, making it twice as hard to stay in the battle for UCL spots.
