Athletic Bilbao secured a commanding 3-1 victory over Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League, with Spanish-Ghanaian winger Nico Williams leading the charge at San Mamés Barria.
Williams opened the scoring in the 25th minute, slotting home a precise left-footed finish into the top left corner after a clever assist from his brother, Iñaki Williams.
The Basque side dominated possession and doubled their lead in the 64th minute when Yeray Ãlvarez nodded in a pinpoint Alex Berenguer cross.
Viktoria Plzen briefly threatened a comeback when Milan Havel struck in the 71st minute, but their hopes faded late on.
