What is the balliest way to take a penalty?
Straight down the middle? A Penenka?
Athletic Bilbao striker Aritz Aduriz has displayed another entry on that list: the one-step run-up.
Aduriz gave his side the lead by breaking the deadlock in their La Liga clash will Real Valladolid on Saturday. The 37-year-old veteran did not mess about, simply taking one step behind before slotting the ball past Valladolid keeper Iago Herrerín, and into the right-hand corner

On social media, the penalty has been compared to something you’d do down your local 5-a-side pitches.
It was the second penalty Aurizhas scored since new manager Gaizka Garitano took over at the start of December.
Things did end well for his team though – Oscar Plano equalised for Valladolid in the 92nd minuted, and the game finished 1-1.
