LaLiga: FC Barcelona steps up and defeats Atlético Madrid

Series of “Colchoneros” tears

FC Barcelona followed up in the long-distance duel with Real Madrid and restored the eleven-point lead. On the day of celebrations in honor of the Catalan patron saint, Sant Jordi, the LaLiga leaders beat Atlético Madrid 1-0 (1-0).

In the packed Camp Nou, Ferran Torres (44) scored the only goal of the game just before half-time on Sunday after former Barça pro Antoine Griezmann hit the bar after just a few seconds. Otherwise, Barcelona’s German keeper Marc-André ter Stegen would have been beaten. Lamine Yamal, 15, did not feature in his first call-up to Barcelona’s senior squad.

In the table of the Spanish championship, the previously twice winless Catalans of coach Xavi finally defended their lead on the 30th of 38 matchdays. On Saturday, arch-rivals Real came within eight points after beating Celta Vigo 2-0. Atlético is third, 16 points fewer than Barça and conceded their first defeat in the league after 13 games.
