Atletico Madrid continued their recent upturn in form as they swatted aside La Liga new boys Huesca 3-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano on Tuesday night.
It was as comfortable a night as they come for Los Rojiblancos, who dominated from start to finish and had the game wrapped up after 35 minutes thanks to goals from Antoine Griezmann, Thomas Partey and a fluke from Koke.
The second half was a non-event but Atleti's form looks to be on the up just in time for this weekend's mouth-watering Derbi Madrileno against Real at the Bernabeu.
Positives
A nice, easy win, another clean sheet and three points in the bag. The fact Griezmann and Diego Costa could be subbed early in the second half was a bonus.
Negatives
Hopefully Jose Maria Gimenez's substitution was just precautionary. The Uruguayan has been in fine fettle this term.
