"In the Spanish "La Liga" championship, four more matches of the 26th round were played on Sunday.
The competition still challenging the "Barcelona" team, Madrid's "Atletico" clashed with San Sebastian's "Real Sociedad" away. The "Rojiblancos" continued their winning streak by defeating the opponents 2-0.
Both goals for the visitors were scored by Alvaro Morata through standard situations. The attacker scored his goals within three minutes, which were the only ones in this match.
In the 62nd minute, "Atletico" had to play with ten players, but not even that helped "La Real" footballers to score one goal - Jan Oblak demonstrated outstanding goalkeeping.
Second-placed "Atletico" still trails "Barcelona" by seven points.
Other matches ended with Madrid's "Getafe" defeating Seville's "Real Betis." "Getafe" continues to hold the fourth position and aims for their dream - to qualify for the Champions League.
