Raul Garcia delighted with goal in winning Athletic Bilbao debut

Raul Garcia struck on debut for Athletic Bilbao in victory over Getafe.

Not since Markel Susaeta in 2007 has a player scored on his Bilbao debut.

"The important thing is that the team won. When the team is doing well everybody benefits. I'm happy that I scored but I'm happier for the victory," said the former Atletico Madrid midfielder.

"The first job, today's, we managed to get done. Augsburg have more to them than just their name suggests. Now we'll rest, prepare for the game and go there with the confidence that we can get a good result."
