Barcelona, Spain (AP) - Athletic Bilbao got a beautiful goal from Aritz Aduriz just after halftime and made that stand as they held off Borussia Monchengladbach 1-nil in a Champions Trophy match up.
Aduriz split two defenders, then struck one off the far post that ricocheted into the back of the net.
Borussia Monchengladbach had their chances, but could not beat Unai Simon, who ended up being named the man of the match. He made three big saves, all after halftime.
Josip Drmic had a chance to equalize in injury time, but his shot from the left side of the box went just wide of the left post.
Borussia Monchengladbach will need a win over Valencia CF on Sunday afternoon in their final group stage match in order to advance to the semifinals. Valencia CF defeated Ajax 2-nil and now have four points, along with Athletic Bilbao. Gladbach is in third place with three points.
