Atlético Madrid suffered a painful defeat on Sunday evening. When visiting number fifteen of LaLiga, Sevilla, the team of coach Diego Simeone lost 1-0. Isaac Romero scored the only goal of the match. It was also a terrible evening for club top scorer Álvaro Morata, who left the field with an apparently serious knee injury.
Sevilla – Atlético Madrid 1-0
Things went wrong early in the match for Atlético Madrid, who fell behind after fifteen minutes of play. Lucas Ocampos extended a corner kick from the left with his head to the far post, where Isaac Romero finished from close range. It was clearly not Morata's game, who already missed two opportunities in the first half.
Just as the half-time signal sounded, the striker suddenly seriously injured his knee and the club's top scorer (thirteen LaLiga goals) left the field in tears. Replacement Memphis Depay could not make any progress in the second act and the score on the scoreboard did not change: 1-0.
