Raúl García gets off the mark
Rulo opened his account for the 2020-21 season with a goal from the spot at Mestalla
Apart from putting another point on the board, Saturday afternoon’s 2-2 draw against Valencia at Mestalla also saw forward Raúl García bag his first goal of the 2020-21 season.
Only two minutes after coming off the bench, Raúl converted from the 12-yard spot in the 79th minute with a powerful shot that went under Jaume Domenech’s body. At the time, the goal, the lions’ second of the match, also gave Athletic a 1-2 lead.
