Bilbao Athletic suffered their first defeat of the season, losing 1-3. The setback came at Lezama against Extremadura, who entered the match in the relegation places and had not scored in their previous three matches.
The opening had gone Bilbao Athletic’s way: they scored with their first dangerous attack. Their lead did not last long. After coming under pressure, Extremadura turned the score around in six minutes, capitalising on defensive mistakes. Bilbao Athletic then conceded again in the 23rd minute, in a move that had appeared to pose little danger.
The Basque side continued to control possession, but its attacking ideas began to fade. Extremadura had a chance to score a third shortly after the start of the second half from a set piece.
In the 81st minute, Extremadura player Diego was sent off after receiving a second booking. Even with ten men, the visitors struck once more on the counter through Escudero, as Bilbao Athletic pushed forward. The result ended Bilbao Athletic’s unbeaten start to the season.
