The match kicked off with Athletic Club taking the lead after just six minutes, albeit in a somewhat fortunate manner after Yuri Berchiche's free kick slipped through the grasp of goalkeeper, David Soria.

However, Getafe swiftly restored parity when Greenwood's impeccable cross from a subsequent corner kick found Gaston Alvarez, who expertly headed the ball into the net six minutes into the second half.

Red-hot Ghanaian forward, Inaki Williams continued his impressive form by netting his third consecutive goal since the international break, thereby putting the Bilbao outfit back in the lead.
