A day to remember for the Williams brothers: Nicholas makes his debut alongside an emotional Iñaki

Despite them being stuck at home unable to enjoy this moment in the San Mamés, the Williams family is already a community in Athletic Club. A moment that Iñaki enjoyed many years ago was experienced by his brother in this Wednesday's match - making his debut for the first team.

Marcelino decided to bring on Nicholas Williams in the 62nd minute for the 18-year-old's debut against Valladolid. An unforgettable moment for him, and also for his brother Iñaki.

The striker lived through this moment on the sideline where he was warming up, and he showed his emotion at seeing another member of his family fulfill his dream. Marcelino brought on Iñaki himself just minutes later.

The older Williams came on to the pitch and was able to enjoy a few minutes next to his brother Nicholas. In fact, his introduction directly contributed to his side's next goal, as Iñaki assisted Raúl García to make it 2-1 to the home side before Weissman's equaliser.

Iñaki Williams made his debut with Athletic on 6th December 2014 in a match against Cordoba. Now, many seasons later on 28th April, Nicholas can brag about completing that challenge himself.
