A week after their defeat against FC Barcelona (2-4), Atletico Madrid revived by snatching victory at home against Getafe (4-3) this Saturday on behalf of the 24th day of La Liga at the end of a crazy encounter.
First in the lead 2-0 after goals from Correa (20th) and Cunha (27th) despite a penalty missed by Suarez against Soria, the Colchoneros were overthrown in the space of 12 minutes on a goal from Mayoral (30th ) and a double final (37th, 42nd) on two penalties conceded on the hands of Cunha and Lemar. Correa, in all good shots, equalized just before the break (45th + 5) following a cross from Lemar, involved in two of his team’s goals. Reduced to ten following the expulsion of Felipe on the hour mark, Diego Simeone’s men still managed to snatch victory in the 89th minute thanks to Hermoso!
The capital club thus temporarily regains 4th place by putting pressure on FC Barcelona, which follows a point behind and faces Espanyol on Sunday in the derby.
