🚨 Atlético de Madrid celebrates comeback win against Leganés

Goalscorers: Sörloth 69′ 90′+10, Griezmann 81′; Noupa 34′

On the tenth matchday, Diego Simeone's men were jointly in third place in the table and tied on points (17) with Athletic Club, RCD Mallorca and Villarreal.

Despite being one of only two teams, along with arch-rivals Real Madrid, to have yet to suffer defeat in the league so far, Atléti were already seven points behind leaders Barcelona, ​​who face a top-six clash with Sevilla later today.

Early dominance and a handful of chances from Madrid counted for nothing as Leganés took a surprise lead in the 34th minute with a well-taken goal from midfielder Yvan Neyou Noupa after his thunderous shot buried Jan Oblak high at the near post.

It was the first shot on goal for the visitors, who had not won in their last six league games at the weekend but had an unexpected one-goal lead at half-time.

Madrid eventually equalized through a cheeky backheel shot from Alexander Sørloth after Axel Witsel provided the provider with a good run into the box, giving Madrid more than enough time to take all three points on the day.

Griezmann scored a second goal in the final ten minutes of the game with a clever touch at the near post to fire home Giuliano Simeone's low cross from the right side.

Sørloth scored his brace in the final moments of stoppage time with a close-range finish after a determined Álvarez danced his way through the Leganés defense before hitting the Norwegian striker free in the penalty area.

This leaves Madrid alone in third place with 20 points this season, four points behind Barcelona and Real.
