Former European champions produce two late goals to upstage Madrid powerhouse, replace Real at top of pointtable
Lamina Yamal and Ferran Torres scored injury-time goals as FC Barcelona came back from two goals down away to Atletico Madrid to win 4-2 and return to the top of La Liga on Sunday.
Playing at the Metropolitano stadium four days after it lost to Madrid in a penalty shootout, Atletico led Barcelona 2-0 at halftime but conceded a pair of stoppage-time goals to waste a chance to overtake the Catalan club for second place and move within a point of Madrid.
"It was a weird game, we did well in the first half and had the game under control after scoring twice," Atletico player Marcos Llorente said. "I do think that the 120 minutes that we had to play in the Champions League made a difference, there was a letdown in the end."
