Zaragoza end the weekend down in the bottom three after they were beaten 1-2 by Athletic Bilbao just a couple of hours after Deportivo had moved above them in the table. Postiga actually gave the Maños an early lead when he headed in a Paco Montañés cross in the fourteenth minute, and the Portuguese striker volleyed a shot just over the top minutes later. Aduríz and De Marcos both felt themselves unlucky to be pulled up for questionable offside decisions, but after the break Iraizoz did well to keep out Postiga, and then push a wide Rochina free kick on to the crossbar. With ten minutes to go however Llorente made it all square after a De Marcos shot came to him off a defender, and with game in injury time Ibai Gómez got the winner for the Basque side with a clever back-heel flick after a good run by De Marcos down the right by-line.
