Atletico Madrid secured their second consecutive victory in La Liga as they defeated Almería 2-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium on Sunday evening. The match was a testament to Atletico's attacking prowess, with both Morata and Griezmann scoring goals.
The opening goal came from a well-worked move down the right flank, where Griezmann found Morata who calmly slotted home a low shot past goalkeeper David Neres. It was a perfect start for Atletico, who dominated the early stages of the game and looked set to take control of the contest.
However, Almería refused to lie down and fought back with determination. They created several chances throughout the first half but were unable to find the back of the net. In the second half, Atletico continued to dominate proceedings, with Morata and Griezmann continuing to threaten the Almería goal.
Morata's goal came in the 58th minute, after he had been played through by fellow forward Koke. He finished coolly to give Atletico the lead, and they never looked like losing it. Griezmann added a third goal in the 77th minute, with a powerful header that deflected off a defender before finding the bottom corner.
Overall, this was a dominant display from Atletico Madrid, who showed why they are considered one of the best teams in Spain. With both Morata and Griezmann performing admirably, they will be confident of pushing on towards the top of the table. However, there is still work to be done, with a tough run of fixtures coming up, including games against Real Madrid and Barcelona. But for now, Atletico have secured another important victory and look set for a bright future under Diego Simeone.
