Athletic Bilbao are currently leading Atletico Madrid 1-0 at half time in tonight's Copa del Rey game at the San Mames.

The game sprung into action in the early minutes, as Diego Costa's shot was saved by Iago Herrerin when up against him one-on-one.

Midway through the first half, Aritz Aduriz's header from close range flew wide of the post.

Towards the latter stages of the first 45, the action became more frantic and end-to-end, as both teams yearned to draw first blood, courtesy of chances from Mikel Rico and Raul Garcia.

Eventually, the deadlock was broken by the Basque side just before the break, as Aduriz rose highest inside the Colchoneros box before thumping his header into the bottom corner.
