Javi Martinez struck a late winner as Athletic Bilbao gave their survival hopes a huge boost with a much-needed 2-1 victory over fellow relegation battlers Real Mallorca at San Mames.
The twenty-year-old slotted home six minutes from time to earn Copa del Rey finalists Athletic their first league win since January and end Mallorca's seven-match unbeaten run that had helped them side climb off the foot of the table and up to twelfth.
