KEY POINTS

  • Giuliano Simeone opened the scoring for Atlético in the ninth minute
  • Fermín López equalised for Barcelona before half-time
  • Fermín scored the winner early in the second half for a 2-1 victory
  • Yamal provided the assist for the decisive goal
  • Atlético made attacking substitutions but could not find an equaliser

Giuliano Simeone put Atlético ahead in the ninth minute with a finish from Julián Álvarez's pass. Barcelona levelled before the break when Fermín struck a curling shot after Pedri drew defenders and Pubill cleared the ball into his path.

Fermín completed his turnaround shortly after the interval, converting Lamine Yamal's through ball past Hancko to make it 2-1. Barcelona then controlled the second half against a retreating Atlético side.

“We have to keep going. Great pass from Julián Álvarez.”

— Giuliano Simeone

Atlético tried to respond by introducing Hjulmand, Cardoso and Jonathan David, while Julián Álvarez had a clear chance that he chipped over the crossbar after Joan García came out.

Pedri nearly added a third with an effort deflected by Pubill, and Yamal twice tested the Atlético defence with long-range shots that went narrowly wide.

Simeone changed Julián's attacking partner, bringing on Sorloth for Kang-in Lee, while Flick replaced Cancelo with Christensen to improve his defence.

The match was part of La Liga coverage on ESPN through Disney Plus's premium plan.
