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

Things did end well for his team though - Oscar Plano equalised for Valladolid in the 92nd minuted, and the game finished 1-1.
