Athletic Bilbao Secures First LaLiga Victory Against Valencia

Athletic Bilbao achieved their first victory in LaLiga this season by defeating Valencia 1-0.

Benat Prados scored the decisive goal for Bilbao just before the halftime break. This loss leaves Valencia at the bottom of the LaLiga standings, still searching for their first point of the season.

In another match, Atletico Madrid faced a challenging encounter against Espanyol, resulting in a 0-0 draw. Rodrigo Riquelme had a potential opening goal disallowed by VAR in the second half, but the draw allowed Atletico to move up to fourth place in the league rankings.

Alaves celebrated their first win of the season after a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Real Sociedad. The match took a turn when Sociedad was reduced to ten men in the 29th minute due to a straight red card issued to Mikel Oyarzabal. Despite this setback, Sociedad initially took the lead through Brais Mendez shortly afterward.

However, Alaves managed to level the score just before halftime when Asier Villalibre converted a penalty. The visitors then secured their victory with a goal from Toni Martinez in the 77th minute.
