FELIX HAUNTS PARENT CLUB AS BARCELONA BEAT ATLETI
Joao Felix scored against his parent club as Barcelona beat Atletico Madrid 1-0 to leapfrog them in the La Liga table and perhaps reignite a title charge.

Felix was in the thick of it all evening and scored the game's only goal with a delicate chip, seconds after being stronger than the Atletico defender in a 50-50 tackle to set up the chance.

Barcelona should really have won by more goals, but out-of-form Robert Lewandowski missed two excellent chances while Raphinha hit the post.

Atleti manager Diego Simeone made a triple change at the interval, clearly unhappy with what he had seen, and despite a late rally his team could not score. He is now without a win in 17 away games versus Barcelona as a manager.

Victory lifts Barca to third place on 34 points, 4 off Girona and leaders Real Madrid. Atletico have 31 points in fourth, as well as a game in hand.

ATLETICO CHANCE

LEWY COMES CLOSE
Lewandowski collects a through ball on the right, beats Hermoso with a lovely dummy and then shoots narrowly wide. He'd done the hard part, but it's not been his night.

He hacks at Yamal's ankles, but it's just a free kick.

GREAT OPENING
Gundogan plays Kounde through and he crosses rather than going for goal, but gets it all wrong. Atleti can clear.

BARCELONA WORKING HARD
Lewandowki tracks back to the left-back position and dispossesses Llorente. Atleti are playing better, not that that is saying much, but the hosts digging in.

FELIX OFF-TARGET
Barca win the ball back well up the pitch and work it to Felix, who attempts the spectacular but shoots wide with the outside of his boot.
