Atletico winning run interrupted despite Suarez's double strike

Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez continued his deadly run of form by scoring twice on Monday but Celta Vigo debutant Facundo Ferreyra had the final say in a 2-2 draw which interrupted the Liga leaders' eight-game winning streak.

Atletico dropped points for the first time since losing to Real Madrid on Dec. 12 but now have 51 from 20 games and lead second-placed Barcelona and champions Real, who are third, by eight points with a match in hand on both teams.

Atletico were missing six players due to COVID-19, including record signing Joao Felix, and they fell behind in the 13th minute to a well worked goal from Celta when Santi Mina ghosted into the box unmarked to turn home a cross from Hugo Mallo.
