Atlético Madrid secured their first win of the season against Almería, thanks to a pair of goals from Antoine Griezmann and Fernando Torres.
The match was a tense affair, with both teams creating chances but failing to find the back of the net until the final stages. In the 68th minute, Griezmann finally broke through for Atlético, scoring his first goal of the campaign to put them ahead.
The victory was all the more impressive given that Almería had been one of the standout sides in La Liga pre-season, boasting a strong squad featuring former Barcelona player Gerard Pique and attacking midfielder Joao Miranda.
However, despite their high-profile players, Almería were unable to find the breakthrough they needed, and the game ended in a 2-0 defeat for them.
Griezmann's goal was a testament to his skill and experience as a forward, while Torres' strike showed his versatility as a striker or winger. Both players have shown glimpses of what they can bring to the team this season, and it will be interesting to see how they develop further.
Overall, the win was a much-needed boost for Atlético Madrid, who now look set to challenge for top spot in La Liga. The team will hope to continue their good form into the rest of the season, and keep their title aspirations alive.
