Atlético Madrid thrash Sevilla with Argentine flair, climb LaLiga

Atlético de Madrid hosted Sevilla in matchday 11 of LaLiga 2025-26 and won 3-0 to confirm their rise in the local league.

For the home team, Atlético Madrid, this match could be a turning point after overcoming Betis and starting to fully engage in the fight for the top of Spanish football, where Real Madrid leads with relative ease.

And that's what they did, although it wasn't easy during the match. Simeone's team deserved more in the first half. They had two clear chances, but their aim wasn't the best.

Nico González hit the left post of Sevilla's goal at 36', which was the most dangerous action at that moment.

In the second half, the hosts finally managed to break the deadlock thanks to a penalty awarded at 61' with the intervention of VAR.

The one who took the shot was Julián Álvarez , who didn't miss even though the goalkeeper guessed where his shot was going.

After the Spider's goal, the Colchonero settled in and ended up sealing the match with a second Argentine goal. Simeone broke through after a high recovery and sent the cross for Almada to push the ball in unopposed.

Near the end, the 3-0 was scored by the Frenchman Griezmann, who came off the bench to add his scoring contribution.
