00:00Oh, yeah!
00:21And here's an opportunity to take a shot on goal!
00:24And look at this, half the lead!
00:26Juan Neu stuns the Real Madrid Metropolitano
00:31as the visitors take the lead, and it is Atletico Madrid 0-1 Leganés.
00:41Now perhaps Riquelme into the penalty area, looking to get past Rossier,
00:44does so and sends in the shot.
00:56Griezmann having taken the ball away,
00:59and the prodded wide by Angel Correa.
01:01Leganés caught in possession, Griezmann finding Correa,
01:06who as I mentioned is often the super sub.
01:20Immediately there's an opportunity,
01:22and Samuel Lina at the far post connecting with it,
01:25I think also connecting with the post, however.
01:38Danny Raba roll, here's Axel Witsel into the penalty area,
01:41away from the Leganés defence.
01:45And Atletico are on level, it was a scrappy goal,
01:48but Alexander Soloth does find the net.
01:51And eventually Los Colchoneros are level, Tony.
01:55Brilliant, brilliant by Alexander Soloth.
02:17And they don't.
02:19Griezmann in at the near post,
02:22and Atletico Madrid have the lead for the first time in the game,
02:26and Leganés switching off.
02:29And it looked like almost there was no opportunity there,
02:33but Griezmann stole it, beat Dmitrovic,
02:35and it's Atletico Madrid 2, Leganés 1.
02:41De Paul with the pass, Soloth to Pablo Barrios,
02:44now across to the far side, he's cutting in field,
02:47Soloth in through the middle,
02:50and it's cleared off the line.
02:54But then dangerously, somewhat haphazardly,
02:56put straight back towards his own goal, Soloth has another go.
03:12Done well there, Julián Álvarez, though,
03:15into the centre, Sergio González and Álvarez,
03:18and eventually it does cross the line,
03:20it is Soloth who adds his second,
03:23the tenacity of Julián Álvarez opening up the Leganés' rearguard,
03:28and now Diego Simeone can walk down the tunnel,
03:31as he does prior to the end of games,
03:34Atletico finally breaking the resistance of Leganés.
03:44Final whistle blows here, the Riyadh air,
03:47Metropolitano,
03:49Diego Simeone off, up the tunnel.
03:54A strong, brave performance from Leganés, but eventually...
