Aritz Aduriz stepped up to the spot as his side trailed Marseille 2-0 in the Europa League. He made no mistake and left his fans with hope of a comeback.

After an early goal from Lucas Ocampos and a belter from Dimitri Payet, the Bilbao striker's left foot thunderbolt struck the hand of Rami in the box.

The referee was initially hesitant to gift Bilbao the penalty, but after protests from the away side, he appeared to change his mind and pointed to the spot.

Aduriz waltzed to the spot and, as cool as you like, dinked the ball past the veteran Steve Mandanda. 2-1 and the comeback was on...
