Ghanaian striker Inaki Williams captained Athletic Bilbao in their first La Liga match of the season, which ended in a 1-1 draw against Getafe.

Williams, displaying his leadership on the pitch, played the full 90 minutes, guiding his team with his experience.

Athletic Bilbao took the lead just before the half-hour mark, with Oihan Sancet finding the back of the net to give the hosts an early advantage.

However, Getafe equalized in the second half through Chrisantus Uche, who made up for a missed opportunity earlier in the game.

Despite Bilbao's efforts to reclaim the lead, including a near miss from Inaki's younger brother, Nico Williams, they were unable to secure a victory.

Nico, who has recently attracted interest from top clubs like Barcelona, came on as a substitute in the 72nd minute. He made an immediate impact but was denied a late winner by Getafe's goalkeeper, David Soria.

Athletic Bilbao will next face Barcelona on August 24th, a match where both Williams brothers will be eager to leave their mark.

Despite the ongoing transfer speculation surrounding Nico, he remains committed to Athletic and is optimistic about having a strong season.
