Neutralized last weekend in Villarreal for the start of the La Liga season, Atlético Madrid won 3-0 against Girona and moved back up to the top of the table.

Diego Simeone and his players have just pocketed the first three points of the season. Against Michel's team, who had a great season last year, the Colchoneros held on until the 39th minute when Antoine Griezmann opened the scoring with a free kick. Slightly dominated in the game, the Madrid team would show themselves to be surgical and break away at the start of the second half.

On a nice service from the French playmaker, Marcos Llorente will score the 2-0 goal in the 48th minute, three minutes after returning from the break. As usual, Atlético Madrid will fall back to manage this two-goal lead. Despite some dangerous incursions from Girona, the score will not change until the 93rd minute. On a lightning counterattack, Llorente will offer the 3-0 goal to Koke.

With this victory, the Colchoneros move up to fourth place in the standings with 4 points, just behind Real Madrid, who have the same number of points. After the opening draw, the Girona team remains stuck in the red zone with this defeat.
