Outstanding performance
Real Madrid•MidfielderAtlético de Madrid dominated territorially throughout, but it was Dean Huijsen's dismissal just after the hour mark that truly broke the game open, handing them a penalty which Alejandro Grimaldo converted calmly. Jonathan David doubled the lead six minutes later as Real Madrid, down to ten men, struggled to contain Atlético's front-foot pressing - reflected in the hosts' 18 shots to 8 and a commanding 61% possession share. Antonio Rüdiger's stoppage-time header from a set piece gave the scoreline late respectability, but Real Madrid never truly threatened a full comeback against a side that created three big chances to their one. For Atlético, this is a statement derby win that lifts spirits in a season where table position has been a concern, while Real Madrid will be left examining a costly individual error that cost them dearly against their fiercest rivals.
