The “athletes” who were running towards the ninth consecutive victory were stopped by the mediocre “Celta” of Vigo, who took two points from the pocket of the Madrid team – the match ended in a 2: 2 draw.
The Madrid team came close to repeating the record for its longest winning streak of this century. He had won nine times in 2013-2014. season, when he was proclaimed champion of Spain for the only time in the last 20 years, but this time Atlético’s series ended with eight victories.
Celta went ahead of Santi Mina in the 13th minute, but Luis Suárez tried to keep the Madriders on the winning track.
The Uruguayan initially “closed” the transfers of the team’s friends at the end of the first half (45 minutes) and then at the beginning of the second quarter (50 minutes) and led Atlético on two occasions.

However, the last word of the match was given by Facundo Ferreyra. He scored the equalizer in the 90th minute and ended the La Liga Championship series, which had lasted almost two months.
The coronavirus may have contributed to the stumbling of Diego Simeone’s pupils. The Madrid club had to fight Celta with debilitating force, as COVID-19, Joao Félix, Mario Hermoso, Moussa Dembele, Héctor Herrera and Thomas Lemar had to separate from the team. Just before the game, Yannick Carrasco also got a negative test.
Despite the lost points, Atlético remains at the top of the Spanish championship and surpasses its closest rivals. The capital’s team has 51 points, while Barcelona and Real Madrid only have 43. Afterwards, Atlético have played one game less than their main rivals.
