Atletico still hanging on

With Antoine Griezmann coming on as a substitute at kick-off, Atlético Madrid were held to a draw on Sunday evening away to Rayo Vallecano (1-1).

Bad operation for Atlético de Madrid. The Colchoneros were held to a draw on the ground of Rayo Vallecano (1-1) this Sunday evening, after being surprised at the end of the first period by the opening goal of Isi Palazon (35th).

Substitute at kick-off, Antoine Griezmann came on at half-time. Diego Simeone’s men quickly equalized through Conor Gallagher (49th), but without being able to score the winning goal.

With three wins and three draws so far, Atletico are now six points behind La Liga leaders FC Barcelona.
