Atletico Madrid go to the top of La Liga with that win, and it was the archetypal performance from them. This was the kind of display that we have come to expect from a Simeone side. They are so well organised and have the best defensive unit in European football.
FULL-TIME: Celta Vigo 0-2 Atletico Madrid
Celta Vigo have given up the ghost now. They know this game has been finished for quite some time, and their pressing play has completely fallen by the wayside now.
Carrasco is enjoying himself now, dribbling past three Celta Vigo players on the counter attack. He almost nutmegs the referee as well, but decides to keep the ball when he gets 30 yards from goal.
Three minutes of stoppage time to be played at the end of the second half.
SERGIO HAD TO MAKE THE SAVE! The wall did its job, taking the sting out of a driven Koke strike - but the Celta Vigo keeper still had to make the sprawling save low down to his right.
Celta Vigo have enjoyed a lot of possession in this game, and they have even found themselves in good attacking positions, but Atletico Madrid have such a strong defensive backline.
Celta Vigo sub: Theo Bongonda OFF, Josep Sene ON.
Atletico Madrid now have a two-goal lead, and Simeone's seemingly getting a nose bleed. He has taken off Griezmann for Gamez and the away side will now see out this match.
Atletico Madrid sub: Antoine Griezmann OFF, Jesus Gamez ON.
Celta Vigo switched off for just a moment, which allowed Oblak to launch the ball forward from the back. Jackson's knock down found Carrasco, and that was that for the hosts.
Celta Vigo sub: Pablo Hernandez OFF, Borja Fernandez ON.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Celta Vigo 0 Atletico Madrid 1 (80 mins - Yannick Ferreira Carrasco). And that should be that. Carrasco latches on to the long ball forward, dropping a shoulder and firing past the Celta goalkeeper.
Atletico Madrid looked to have given themselves a good position for an attack, but Jackson's touch was horrendous and the move broke down. Wow, that was really, really bad.
With those changes from Simeone, it looks like Atletico Madrid are now playing in a 4-5-1 formation. Jackson is being used as the frontman - with Carrasco and Griezmann the support.
The rain is still lashing down on this pitch, which was already cutting up earlier in the match. The wind is also strong, with Celta Vigo the ones at the disadvantage as a result.
Atletico Madrid sub: Luciano Vietto OFF, Jackson Martinez ON.
That is a very attacking change from the home side. Off comes Radoya, who is a holding midfielder, and on comes the striker Guidetti. He will give them more presence up front.
