Review of the match Atletico - Real Madrid:

Atletico Madrid beat Real Madrid 3-1 in a tense La Liga encounter In a tense encounter between two giants of Spanish football, Atletico Madrid emerged victorious, beating rivals Real Madrid by a comfortable 3-1 scoreline. The match was played at the Estadio Civitas Metropolitano, Atletico Madrid's home stadium, and showed the intensity and passion that characterises one of the biggest rivalries in world football. From the outset, both teams showed their attacking abilities, looking to seize the advantage. Atletico Madrid took the lead as early as the 4th minute when striker Alvaro Morata struck a shot that sent the fans into a frenzy. Antoine Griezmann doubled the lead in the 18th minute. Madrid continued to dominate the game, showing a hunger for success, and in the 35th minute Real Madrid managed to get back into the game thanks to the creative midfielder Toni Kroos. That goal energised the visitors and they began to press forward. However, as the tension on the pitch began to build, the number of penalties began to accumulate: Luka Modric and Jose Maria Gimenez received yellow cards just before the break. At the start of the second half, both teams made substitutions, hoping to maintain the pace of the game with fresh energy. Atletico's Koke was replaced by Axel Witsel, while Real Madrid's Luka Modric was replaced by Joselu.

However, the hosts struck next - in the first minute of the second half, Morata scored his second goal of the match, further increasing Atletico's lead. "Real Madrid tried to fight back and made three substitutions in a row in the hope of finding a breakthrough. Federico Garcia, Eduardo Camavinga and Lucas Fernandez were brought into the game to breathe new life into the attack. However, Atletico stood firm, showing solid defence and leaving their opponents no glimmer of hope. Emotions flared in the end of the match, resulting in a yellow card for Real Madrid's Ferland Mendy in the 67th minute. The cards continued to pile up and Jude Bellingham became the last player to receive a caution in a match that often turned into a struggle. As time ran out, both teams made further substitutions in an attempt to maintain their form and build momentum. Benjamin Diaz replaced Toni Kroos in Real Madrid's line-up, while Atletico had Memphis Depay, Angel Correa and Juan Lino in place of Alvaro Morata, Jose Maria Gimenez and Joaquin Galan. In the end, Atletico came away with a deserved victory. The victory over arch rivals Real Madrid will surely boost the morale of Atletico and their fervent fans.
