FT: Athletic Bilbao 2-2 Getafe

Athletic Bilbao and Getafe shared points in their LaLiga clash at San Mames following a dramatic encounter.

Bilbao opened the scoring after just six minutes thanks to Yuri Berchiche's free-kick that goalkeeper David Soria failed to hold on to.

The hosts almost doubled their lead when Gorka Guruzeta's shot hit the post.

Ernesto Valverde's men were flying until Oihan Sancet was sent off after a horror challenge that saw him catching Diego Rico in the air with his boot.

Getafe took advantage of the numerical advanatage and equalised in the 51st minute when Mason Greenwood's corner found Gaston Alvarez's header that caught a deflection off Inaki Williams and went to the back of the net.

Williams, thoughm redeemed himself 11 minutes later with a wonderful solo run that saw him hitting Soria's bottom right corner.

But Getafe equalised for the second time when Jose Angel Carmona's pinpoint cross from the right found Juanmi Latasa at the far post where he got the header and beat Unai Simon.

The game ended with a fracas that saw the visitors' manager Jose Bordalas being sent off.
