Two goals from Radamel Falcao gives Atletico Madrid a 2-0 half-time lead over Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League final in Bucharest.

Two goals from Radamel Falcao have given Atletico Madrid a 2-0 half-time lead over Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League final in Bucharest.

Madrid made the breakthrough after only seven minutes when Falcao powered in an unstoppable left-footed drive from inside the area after shrugging off the attention of a couple of Bilbao defenders.

Marcelo Bielsa's side appeared unflustered by the early setback and could have drawn themselves level when Fernando Llorente put his header just wide of the post.

The striker had the best chance for his team midway through the half, but he could only slice his close-range volley wide while under pressure from two defenders.

Bilbao again pressed as Iker Munain's shot was parried away by Thibaut Courtois.

However, Madrid doubled their lead when Falcao turned cleverly in the box before he fired into the net.
