Athletic Club vs Atlético Madrid

Athletic Bilbao delivered a statement win over Atletico Madrid, turning a tight first half into a 3-0 rout at San Mamés with a stunning burst right after the break. Lee Kang-in rattled the post early for the visitors and was booked before the interval, with Atletico also hitting the woodwork through Pablo Barrios. Atletico looked the sharper side in the first half, but everything changed in a flash after the restart: Nico Williams headed the hosts in front in the 46th minute, and two minutes later Robert Navarro doubled the lead. Atletico's response fizzled further as substitute Julian Alvarez, returning from illness, struggled to make an impact. Oihan Sancet capped the rout in the 90th minute, stroking home a loose ball. The result gives Athletic Bilbao back-to-back wins under new coach Edin Terzic after an 0-2 start, while Atletico Madrid suffer their first defeat of the season under Diego Simeone, a harsh wake-up call on the road.
