Atlético Madrid secured their first win in La Liga this season with a thrilling victory over Villarreal at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The match was dominated by Atlético's high-pressure defending and counter-attacking style of play, with the team putting up a strong defensive display to keep Villarreal at bay for most of the game.
However, it was not until the 78th minute that the deadlock was broken when Antoine Griezmann found the back of the net from close range after a brilliant run and cross from Saul Niguez.
The goal proved crucial as Atlético continued to dominate possession and create chances, but it was Griezmann who provided the final touch to secure the three points for his side.
Simeone's tactical changes were also key to the victory, with the coach making several substitutions late in the second half to try and break down the Villarreal defense.
Despite being behind, Atlético remained composed and showed great composure in front of goal, with Griezmann providing the decisive moment to seal the win.
Overall, it was another impressive performance from Atlético Madrid, who continue to show why they are considered one of the best teams in Europe.
With just two games left in the group stage of the Champions League, the team will be hoping to build momentum heading into the knockout stages and secure a place in the last eight.
