Alex Berenguer scored a late winner as Athletic Club inflicted Atletico Madrid's second LaLiga defeat in four days, with Ernesto Valverde's side triumphing 1-0 at San Mames. Having lost 3-1 to Barcelona at Camp Nou on Tuesday, Diego Simeone's side lost further ground at the top of the table as they slipped up in a game of few clear-cut chances. Athletic had the better of a low-key first half, but Gorka Guruzeta shot wide following a flowing move 10 minutes in, while Nico Williams curled narrowly wide from distance.

Now, according to SPORT, Fermin's physical problem originated in Barcelona's La Liga game against Athletic Club last weekend. It came specifically from Oihan Sancet's very harsh tackle, a play in which the Athletic midfielder caught Fermin on his leg, forcing him to remain on the ground for a long moment and showing clear signs of pain. Sancet was sent off for the challenge.

What I thought might happen in five, six, seven years happened in 19 days. It was August 2018, Simon was 21 and although he had been training at Athletic Club for a decade, and with the first team for three years, the son of police officers from Vitoria didn't think there was a chance of playing in Bilbao any time soon, if at all. It was all he wanted but he didn't even live there any more, moving 800km in search of an opportunity with second division Elche.

After several weeks stuck on 99 goals for Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski made it to three figures by scoring twice in a 3-0 win at Athletic Club on La Liga's final day.

Maguire's unexpected dribbling amazes fans, leading to him being affectionately dubbed 'Harrydinho' as Manchester United triumphs 3-0 over Athletic Club in the Europa League.

As Athletic Club celebrates its ties to the Basque community, the club's philosophy emphasizes a unique connection between players and their local roots.

After winning the Copa del Rey, Athletic Club's massive celebrations may have impacted their performance, as enjoyed by players turned into a party rather than a focus on the next season.
