Sensational Aritz Aduriz Header Gives Athletic Bilbao Lead Over Real Madrid

Aritz Aduriz's curling and smoking header put Athletic Bilbao up over Real Madrid in the first half of action.

Aritz Aduriz hit a swerving header off a lovely pass from Mikel Rico to put Athletic up 1-0 on Real Madrid. Rico saw Aduriz start his curling run into the penalty area and placed a perfect ball that Aduriz snapped past the diving Iker Casillas. Not only was the header absolutely smoked—look at the net pop—but it had all kinds of movement; Casillas never stood a chance.

As always, you are encouraged to listen to Ray Hudson's call because he is the best.

WOW!!! What a beautiful header by Aduriz. 1-0 Athletic go up. #beINLaLiga http://t.co/eOwA3mi9EM
