Ghana forward Inaki Williams played a starring role in Athletic Bilbao’s huge triumph over Atletico Madrid to book a spot in the Copa Del Rey (Spanish FA Cup) final.
Bilbao beat Atletico 3-0 at the San Memes to register a 4-0 aggregate win over Diego Simeone’s men in dominant fashion.
Inaki Williams scored the game’s opening goal in the 13th minute off with a brilliant volley connecting to a dinked cross from brother Nico Williams from the left.
The older Williams played the role of provider in the 42nd minute as he assisted Nico’s goal to put Bilbao up 2-0. Gorka Guruzeta wrapped up the tie with a goal in the 62nd minute.
Celebrating the win on his X (formerly Twitter) page, Williams wrote, “What A Dream” and added “life is too short not to try what we really want.”
In four appearances in the Copa Del Rey this season, Inaki Williams has two goals and two assists. Inaki Williams featured in the AFCON for the first time when he competed for Ghana’s Black Stars at the 2023 AFCON in Cote D’Ivoire.
