Barcelona Atletico Madrid

Within three minutes he had the chance to redeem himself but passed it up. Carrasco, who has flown out of the blocks since lockdown, escaped down the left and Arturo Vidal chopped him down.

Costa's spot-kick was saved by Marc Andre ter Stegen. Barcelona celebrated but referee Alejandro Hernandez was advised by VAR that both the keeper's feet had been off the line.

Saul kept his head as Barcelona players surrounded the referee and he rolled in the re-take. Costa inadvertently turns the ball into his own net from a corner kick just minutes later.

Atletico were buoyed by the goal. They came into the game having only dropped two points. They also look fitter than most teams back from the three-month break and they were flying into challenges both fairly and otherwise.

Messi received crunching challenges from Thomas and twice from Saul whose second was cynical and earned him a booking.

Partey fouled Puig and with four minutes remaining of the first half Messi stepped up. Was this to be goal No ? His kick was kept out by an extraordinary save from Oblak after the ball fizzed off of the top of the wall and he had to adjust his body shape in mid-air.

Niguez scores his first penalty, sending Ter Stegen the wrong way after Costa saw his first penalty saved. The penalty was ordered to be retaken after the keeper came off his line early.

Ter Stegen throws himself to his left to save Costa's spot kick after advancing from his line. Lionel Messi curls a free-kick over the crossbar as Quique Setien's side dropped two points.

Five minutes after the break Messi's monumental goal came. Atletico might have responded within five minutes but it just wasn't Diego Costa's night.

He headed Santiago Arias crossed wide after Marcos Llorente had played the full-back in behind Barcelona's defence. Atletico got themselves level when Semedo clipped the galloping Carrasco and Saul stepped up again.

This time Ter Stegen dived the right way but despite getting a hand on the ball it squirmed past him and into the corner.

Carrasco goes to ground and wins a second penalty after minimal contact with Semedo. Barcelona manager Quique Setien looks dejected as Barca move one point behind Los Blancos.

With 15 minutes left Costa clattered the still all-action Puig and was taken off by Simeone. Alvaro Morata came on and had one shot charged down by Semedo.

There was no third goal for Atletico and so no first ever league win as Atletico coach for Simeone. But more importantly for the destination of the title there was no third goal for Barcelona.

Griezmann was brought on for the injury time minutes, there was barely time for him to get a touch against his former club. Barcelona have now dropped four points in two games.

They have made it hard for themselves and now need Madrid to do what coach Setien has always said they will do - drop points.

Decisivo un gol di Carrasco, che condanna i blaugrana alla terza sconfitta in questo campionato. Un gol di Yannick Carrasco ha deciso il match tra Atletico Madrid e Barcellona.

One of his first pieces of business was to bid farewell to Uruguayan frontman Suarez, with the South American allowed to link up with La Liga rivals Atletico Madrid.

A man who plundered goals for the Blaugrana has been outscoring his former team-mates this season, with an eight-goal return in the Spanish top flight better than Lionel Messi and Co have managed.

Barca could be forgiven for wishing they had kept the year-old on their books, but Koeman is reluctant to dwell on events of the past.

I always highlighted his qualities. The decision was already made by the club and him.
