Despite the quick opening score from attacking midfielder Unai Gomez (0-1, 10th), Ernesto Valverde’s men were unable to move on and take cover. Finally, Joan Jordan equalized in the second half (1-1, 67th) and allowed Alavés to grab a deserved draw in the entire match. With this result, Bilbao remains fourth while Alavès remains sixteenth.
