Inaki Williams put on a spectacular display as Athletic Bilbao dominated Atletico Madrid 3-0 in the Copa del Rey semi-finals, setting up a final showdown against Mallorca on April 6.
The Ghana
striker scored once and assisted his younger brother Nico Williams for another
goal, leading Athletic to a commanding 4-0 aggregate victory.
Inaki Williams was unstoppable
throughout the match, using his quick reflexes and sharp instincts to
outmaneuver the Atletico defense.
He opened the scoring in the 15th minute,
emphatically volleying past Jan Oblak after Nico Williams' cross found him
unmarked in the box.
The elder Williams sibling still needed to be finished, as he
turned provider just before halftime. His clever cutback found Nico Williams,
who coolly finished past Oblak to give Athletic a 2-0 lead.
The hosts continued to press, and their efforts
were rewarded on the hour mark when they scored a third goal, sealing the 4-0
aggregate victory.
Inaki Williams has been a driving force behind
Athletic's success this season, contributing 11 goals and five assists in all
competitions.
His exceptional form has helped the team reach
their first Copa del Rey final since 2021 and he'll be eager to lead them to
their 24th title when they take on Mallorca in Sevilla.
