Atletico Madrid vs Las Palmas

Eibar players were left incensed after first being denied a penalty and then seeing a dubious goal allowed to stand in against Atlético Madrid on Saturday.

In the second controversial decision, Saúl looked to be offside when he got on the end of a Filipe Luis cross to nod home Atlético’s opening goal. However, the match officials did not rule it out and the visitors took the lead in the 54th minute.

Antoine Griezmann added a second later in the game to bring his Liga drought to an end.
