Thumping finish

Forget what else was going on in the Europa League on Thursday evening, the goal of the night undoubtedly came in Marseille.

Athletic Bilbao were visiting the French side, and opened the scoring courtesy of this absolute thunderbolt of a volley from Aritz Aduriz.

The goal instantly brings back memories of a similar effort that Luis Suarez scored against Norwich back in his Liverpool days.
