Ghana forward Inaki Williams was the star of the show on Wednesday night, scoring a brilliant brace to lead Athletic Club to a dominant 2-0 victory over Fenerbahce in the Europa League.
This win, which came in Round 6 of the European competition, highlighted Williams’ exceptional finishing and composure under pressure.
The game kicked off with an early breakthrough for Athletic Club in the 5th minute. Williams capitalized on a defensive blunder when a careless pass from the Fenerbahce defense left him in a prime position. Calmly, he slotted the ball past the outstretched goalkeeper to give Athletic Club the lead.
As the first half drew to a close, Williams doubled his tally in spectacular fashion. Receiving the ball in the box, he unleashed a powerful strike that clattered off the crossbar and into the net, leaving goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic unable to react. His goal in the 45th minute was a moment of individual brilliance, showcasing his sharp attacking instincts.
Throughout the match, Williams was a constant menace to the Fenerbahce defense, demonstrating both versatility and a relentless work ethic.
He was eventually substituted in the 85th minute, making way for Mikel Vesga, after putting in a performance that not only secured the win but also reinforced Athletic Club’s position at the top of their Europa League group.
