Las Palmas were hoping to continue their recent good form and secure all three points against Athletic Bilbao, but they fell short on Saturday evening. The visitors took the lead early in the second half through a well-taken free-kick from David Silva, who curled it past Las Palmas goalkeeper Álvaro de la Portilla. This was just the latest example of Athletic's ability to score from set pieces, having already scored two goals from corners this season.

Despite being behind, Las Palmas continued to push forward and create chances, but they struggled to convert them into goals. The home side had several golden opportunities to equalise, but they failed to do so. In fact, Athletic Bilbao almost doubled their lead before the final whistle when Pablo Sarabia's header hit the post and bounced off the crossbar.

In the end, it was Athletic who came out on top, thanks to a stunning free-kick from David Silva. The Spaniard's effort found the back of the net, leaving Las Palmas fans disappointed. Despite the loss, Las Palmas will be encouraged by their performance and will hope to bounce back next week. They have shown that they can compete with the best teams in La Liga, and they will be looking to improve their record against Athletic Bilbao in future meetings.

Overall, it was a disappointing day for Las Palmas, who were unable to overcome Athletic Bilbao at home. However, there is still hope for the team, and they will need to work hard if they want to make a real impact in La Liga. With some key players returning from injury, Las Palmas will be looking to build on their recent success and start to challenge for honours once again.
