Spanish champions Barcelona kicked off the new season with a loss to Atletic Club on the opening day of the La Liga season after a world class finish from veteran striker Aritz Aduriz handed Athletic Bilbao victory.
Barca produced a lacklustre performance and were punished when substitute Aduriz, 38, found the net with a stunning 89th minute scissor-kick.
Ernesto Valverde’s side – chasing a third successive La Liga title – also included midfielder Frenkie de Jong, a £65m signing from Ajax but were disjointed for long spells and managed just two shots on target. It was the first time Athletic had beaten Barcelona in six years and the third time in a row the champions had failed to claim a victory.
