Atlético Madrid is on a roll, stubbornly refusing to lose. Diego Simeone’s team has racked up six consecutive wins across all competitions, setting the field ablaze.
The Madriders’ latest victim was Espanyol, which hosted Cholo’s team and suffered a bitter 1-0 defeat in the end, as part of La Liga’s 9th matchday.
With Alejandro Baena scoring the “golden” goal in the 89th minute, Atlético secured another three points and continues to chase Barcelona, now trailing by just two points and having played one fewer game. The Madrid side is confirming its excellent form and remains a strong contender for the top spot.
