Aritz Aduriz said he will always be available to help Athletic Bilbao until the last day after his stunning bicycle kick downed Barcelona 1-0 in the LaLiga opener.
Aduriz plans to retire at season’s end but the 38-year-old Bilbao star showed he still has plenty of football left in the tank thanks to his unforgettable 89th-minute winner on Friday.
The club great scored within a minute of his introduction via a spectacular overhead kick against the LaLiga champions at San Mames.
Aduriz’s goal saw him match a Lionel Messi scoring feat, having now scored in 15 consecutive seasons in Spain’s top flight, and the veteran striker revelled in the result.
