The Spanish Football Soccer League - La Liga - celebrated its now habitual Monday Night game with an ATHLETIC DE BILBAO vs. RACING DE SANTANDER that turned into a festival of goals in the last 20 minutes. The Basque team won 4-3 with a "crazy" 2º half & Racing down to 10 men in the last 10 minutes.

Athletic de Bilbao started things off positive fashion with a goal in the 13th min from LLORENTE (pictured above) & a second from TOQUERO in the 17th min (pictured below).

However, Racing have the threat of relegation hanging over their heads & didn´t give in to pull one back in the 41st min via TCHITE. The 2º half started & the next 45 mins were to be full of action & goals. While Racing fought to pull back an equalizer, Bilbao were awarded a penalty in the 78th min which was converted by LLORENTE. Then Racing scored via BOLUDO in the 80th min to see how 2 minutes later his team-mate Oriol was to receive a red card ( 2 yellow) to leave Racing with 10 men. Bilbao took advantage of the disorganization & SUSAETA scored in the 87th min to see a last minute attempt by Racing who scored a third in the 93rd min via BOLUDO with a "screamer". But the brave comeback ran out off time & Bilbao hung on with tooth & nail even with their 4 goals under their belt.

Great match with goals & plenty of fighting spirit from both sides that went the way of the home team who are doing a great season & are up high in the classification table. Brave attempt by Racing! Tweet
