Liga: Atlético Madrid takes on Athletic Bilbao in the clash for the Champions League

Atlético Madrid consolidated its fourth qualifying place for the Champions League this Saturday by winning against its pursuer Athletic Bilbao (3-1) at the Metropolitano for the 33rd day of La Liga. A success which allows the Colchoneros (4th, 64 points), left behind in the title race due to their poor away results, to push the Basques back six lengths, five days from the end of the season.

Argentina's Rodrigo de Paul opened the scoring (15th, 1-0), before Spanish winger Nico Williams equalized on the counter following a bad back pass from Antoine Griezmann (45th, 1-0). 1). Atlético went ahead in the 52nd minute thanks to a nice goal from Angel Correa (2-1), and was successful in making the break with an unfortunate own goal from goalkeeper Unai Simon (80th, 3 -1).

The match was interrupted for a few moments at the end of the first period when Nico Williams reported having been targeted by racist chants from Madrid supporters.
