Aritz Aduriz has the one-step penalty down to a tee.
It has been an immensely frustrating season for Athletic Bilbao as they languish in 17th spot desperately scrambling to avoid a relegation dogfight. However, the club had a ray of light tonight thanks to a genius Aduriz penalty.
The Spaniard didn't even take a full step forward. Instead, he motioned to begin retreating but after just one step back cooly fired into the bottom corner to give Bilbao the lead against Real Valladolid. In doing so, he provided inspiration for five-a-side players all around the globe.

However, he didn't have the joy of scoring the winner as Óscar Plano grabbed a 92-minute equaliser for the visiters.
