It wasn’t a historic night – that was only for Antoine Griezmann, who equaled Luis Aragonés at the top of Atlético’s all-time top scorers – but it was almost close.

With nine goals in two games, Sevilla returned to winning ways with a rout against Granada and Getafe were on the verge of beating the Madrid team, but it all culminated in a three-goal draw.

Anyone who sees the results thinks that the most balanced game took place at the Wanda Metropolitano, but it wasn’t quite like that. In Los Carmenesthe duel proved to be very close, even though Sevilla scored two goals in less than ten minutes in the first half, through Pedrosa and Ocampos – a great goal.

Granada, which had André Ferreira in the starting line-up, chased the result as best they could, but new coach Quique Flores’ men showed a huge reaction to the recent results and even gave Sergio Ramos a goal.

With these three points, the red and white They rise to 13th place with 16 points, while Granada remains in relegation limbo with just eight.

In Madrid, Atleti’s life was very difficult. Getafe were very combative, having accumulated 29 (!) goal attempts, compared to just eight of the colchoneros.

In addition to Oblak’s highly targeted goal, Simeone’s “boys” also found themselves having to deal with Savic’s early expulsion, still in the first half of the match. Even so, Griezmann opened the scoring, close to half-time.

In the second part, the rest of the emotion. Borja Mayoral sealed the equalizer, but, ten minutes later, Morata and Griezmann once again opened Atlético de Madrid’s lead to two goals.

Getafe charged, charged, charged… and almost succeeded. Even in the final minutes, Rodríguez reduced the score and Mayoral scored the equalizer again, beyond regulation time.

Until the end, the blues continued to give everything in search of victory, but there was no more and a point he flew for each side.
