Barcelona clawed back from a 10th‑minute goal to defeat Atletico Madrid 2‑1 at the Metropolitano Stadium, with Fermin Lopez scoring both goals.
Atletico opened the scoring when Giuliano Simeone converted a low cross from Julian Alvarez, but Lopez equalised just before half‑time when the hosts failed to clear their lines.
Lopez then netted the winner in the 66th minute after a smart pass from Lamine Yamal, sending the visitors’ goalkeeper Joan Garcia into the net.
Despite a strong first half, Atletico could not convert their early dominance and were left in third place, five points behind Barcelona.
Barcelona now sit three points clear of rivals Real Madrid, who remain level on points but trail on goal difference.
