Rayo Vallecano v Atletico Madrid - as it happened, Atleti win to go third

Consecutive one-nil victories for Atleti. Simeone has the team back playing in his image.

A corner fell to Balliu on the edge of the box but his shot through a crowd is comfortably stopped by Oblak.

They are replaced by Felipe and Hermoso.

A corner was cleared to him five yards outside the box and it wasn't the worst effort flying a few yards over.

He appeared to push Catena over but you must imagine there was more in it than that for the substitute to reach his marching orders.

A big call from the Rayo coach taking off his best player.

Another Atletico booking. This the first for time wasting. It might not be the last. It goes to Oblak.

Trejo's free kick finds Garcia who forces a ball across the six-yard box but Nteka, swinging a leg at it, gets a poor contact on his strike and the ball skews perpendicular to the goal.

He brings down Balliu on the halfway line.

He brings down Trejo who was racing towards the penalty area.

But no one is there to get on the end of it.

But Oblak comes out to dive and claim the ball low in front of him.

Lodi, Joao Felix and Herrera come off.

Kondogbia, Correa and Suarez come on.

They are replaced by Palazon and Ciss.

Trejo plays in Suarez who shoots low and hard but Oblak saves diving full-stretch to his right.

Trejo's shot had Oblak beaten but the defender blocked it. Rayo appeal for a penalty but no dice.

He broke the offside trap and had time to turn on his left foot but shot straight at Dimitrievski.

But Atleti will be fine with that as they look very little threat at present.

Koke plays the ball to Joao Felix on the edge of the box and receives a perfectly-timed return ball which he slots first time into the far corner.
