"Baena latched on to Nahuel Molina's through-ball to race through on goal before gently lifting over Joan García and while the offside flag went up, the decision was overturned on VAR. But Barcelona, who who had won their previous four matches in the league, drew level eight minutes later when Pedri teed up Raphinha to go round Jan Oblak and slot into an empty net."
"It almost got better for the hosts when Pablo Barrios upended Olmo in the area but Lewandowski skied the resulting penalty kick before his close-range header moments later was saved by Oblak. Lewandowski fluffed his lines again at the beginning of the second half, although it was his pass that freed Olmo in the area and the Spain midfielder made no mistake with a low left-foot finish past Oblak."
Atlético Madrid opened the scoring when Álex Baena beat Barcelona's offside trap after latching on to Nahuel Molina's through-ball, a goal confirmed by VAR. Barcelona responded eight minutes later as Pedri set up Raphinha to round Jan Oblak and finish into an empty net. Robert Lewandowski missed a penalty and later had a close-range header saved, but his second-half pass released Dani Olmo to score with a low left-foot finish. Olmo appeared to injure his left arm during his follow-through and was substituted clutching his shoulder. Substitute Ferran Torres added a goal to secure victory, leaving Barcelona four points clear of Real Madrid.
