🇪🇸 Morata nets injury time winner as Atleti make it nine unbeaten | OneFootball

Over 100 minutes were played and Atlético de Madrid needed almost every single one of them to win in dramatic fashion.

Scorers: Morata 90+3′

A largely uneventful first half was followed by a largely uneventful second half before Atlético de Madrid stole a late win against Girona on Mondy.

Memphis had two fine chances before the break but missed the target with both as an organised Girona side otherwise frustrated their guests.

And that continued after the break too, lasting all the way until injury time, when substitute Álvaro Morata snuck free at the back post to poke a hopeful, deflected flick-on from a corner over the line.

A long, long wait for a VAR check for offside saw Atleti awarded the goal and they held on for all three points to make it nine LaLiga games without defeat.

The win sees them go within eight points of Real Madrid in second, while creating a six-point gap to Real Betis in fifth.
