Nico Williams named Man of the Match after providing an assist in Athletic Bilbao draw with Getafe

Ghana target Nico Williams was adjudged named Man of the Match after registering an assist for Athletic Bilbao in their 2-2 draw against Getafe in LaLiga on Tuesday.

The 20-year-old put an impressive display as his side secured a point at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez.

His brother Inaki Williams marked his 350th appearance by scoring a second-minute goal after excellent work from former Manchester United and PSG midfielder Ander Herrera.

The goal did no last long as Carles Aleñá equalized for the home side in the 27th minute.

The visitors continued to press Getafe after halftime and it paid off in the 62nd minute. Nico Williams sent a wonderful pass to Raul Garcia who made it 2-1.

Nico Williams was substituted in the 74th minute and replaced by Oier Zarraga.

Getafe shocked the visitors who were cruising to a win. Duarte sent in a ball that found Munir in the 76th minute to make it 2-2.

The draw extended Athletic’s winless run to four games following their goalless stalemate against Atletico Madrid on Saturday and they have now slipped from third to sixth on the table on 18 points from 10 matches, seven behind leaders Real Madrid, who play Elche on Wednesday.

Nico Williams has scored three goals and provided three assists in 10 league games this season.
