Atlético saves a point in added time

Atlético de Madrid saved a point in added time by drawing against Villarreal with an own goal by Algerian Aissa Mandi (2-2), which made the two goals on the counterattack of the ‘yellow submarine’ useless.

After a first half with good play and unsuccessful rojiblancas chances, among them a shot to the post by Frenchman Thomas Lemar, Villarreal scored the 0-1 on his first shot on goal, by Manu Trigueros (minute 52).

It took just four minutes for Luis Suárez to equalize the duel, but in a new yellow counterattack in 74, the Dutchman Arnaut Danjuma made it 1-2. However, an own goal by Mandi in the 95th minute in a transfer of head to his goalkeeper, Argentine Gero Rulli, who was not placed, ended in the final 2-2. EFE (HN)
