Moro's goal appeared to have sealed the victory for Real Valladolid, but Athletic Club's resilience paid off in the dying embers of the contest. In added time, Guruzeta conjured up a moment of magic, expertly flicking the ball home to level the score and salvage a vital point for the Basque outfit.

The late equalizer ensured Athletic Club head into the November break on a positive note, maintaining their momentum ahead of the season's resumption. Meanwhile, Real Valladolid will reflect on what could have been, having come agonizingly close to securing all three points.
