Athletic claim first win after Andrade makes history

Athletic Club came from behind to beat Qarabag 3-1 and claim a first Champions League win of the season after opposition midfielder Leandro Andrade made European football history.

Andrade gave Qarabag the lead after just 48 seconds when he pounced on a defensive mix up between Aymeric Laporte and Aitor Paredes and slotted past Unai Simon.

In doing so, the Cape Verdean became the first player in a major European football competition history to score in the first minute of three different games.

Athletic Club cranked up the pressure and eventually converted a chance in the 40th minute when Gorka Guruzeta produced a neat one-on-one finish.

The Bilbao club remained on top after the break and went ahead when substitute Robert Navarro curled a delicious strike into the top corner five minutes after replacing Nico Williams.

Moments after Yuri Berchiche cleared Oleksii Kashchuk's would-be equaliser off the goal-line, Guruzeta scored his third goal in as many Champions League games with a fierce volley into the bottom corner.

It was only a second win in 10 games in all competitions for Ernesto Valverde's side, who began their European campaign with 2-0 and 4-1 defeats by Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund respectively.

On matchday four Athletic Club will face Newcastle at St James' Park (5 November, 20:00 BST), while Qarabag will host Chelsea in Baku (5 November, 17:45 BST).
