Athletic Bilbao are still recovering from the dramatic and painful elimination in the semi-finals of the Spanish King's Cup after 1:1 against Osasuna in extra time and 2:1 to the guest in the summary of the two games.

One of the biggest disappointments of the relegation was Nico Williams, the young striker of the Basque team, who surprisingly closed all his social networks after the game.



The young Spaniard's move came after he received many reactions on social networks that hurt him for the misses, especially a big one in extra time, and his ability on the field in the dramatic draw, in what his agency described as "disrespect" and "making him a target".

Bilbao issued a statement in which it also shared the agency's statement and reinforced Williams for his decision.

Nico wants to thank the fans who supported him yesterday who influence him Every game is for the better. We call for an end to this attitude of humiliation on social networks. Not everything works."
