Atlético Madrid won at home against low flyer Elche on Thursday evening. In the Wanda Metropolitano it became 2-0. Atlético is currently in third place in the standings.

Diego Simeone saw how his team could not find the way to goal in the first half. Not even after a red card for Elche defender Verdu and the subsequent dangerous kick.

After the break it was a hit: Joao Félix finished on the instructions of Griezmann (who stood out with a new haircut). A few minutes earlier, the home team had also fallen with a man less after a stupid second yellow for Hermoso.

Elche, which has not yet been able to win this season and is dangling at the very bottom, could not do anything in return and saw Atlético take a double lead through Morata. In the end, the last in La Liga would even finish with nines.

Atlético jumps through the victory to the provisional third place in the standings with 27 points.
