Athletic Bilbao stuck four past Barcelona in the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup last night, with Mikel San Jose getting the Basque chaps off to a flyer just 13 minute in.
With Marc-Andre ter Stegen stranded on the edge of his box after heading away a high ball, the clearance fell to San Jose in the centre circle. What followed was a thing of true beauty…
So sweet.
The second half proved even more torrid for Barcelona, with Aritz Aduriz helping himself to a 15-minute hat-trick to complete the rout – the first hat-trick scored against Barca since 2005.
