Atletico Madrid will reflect on an opportunistic win that keeps them well in the title race, but Las Palmas will see it differently. They should have made more of their pressure in the first half. Simeone's side have got away with one tonight, but then they always seem to get away with one. Typical Atletico.

FULL-TIME: Las Palmas 0-3 Atletico Madrid

The home side's concentration has completely gone, but the scoreline doesn't reflect how this game has gone for the most part. This is harsh on Las Palmas, in the main.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Las Palmas 0 Atletico Madrid 3 (87 mins - Antoine Griezmann). Atletico Madrid have made sure of the result, with Griezmann taking Koke's through ball well to finish past the Las Palmas keeper Varas.

The stuffing has been knocked out of Las Palmas since that second goal. They were still in the contest, but the energy from their play has been sucked out. Atletico have suffocated them.

Setien doesn't look too happy on the touchline. But his ire won't be directed at his players, he's just upset that his side don't look like they'll take anything out this game. They have played well!
84'
For all that they have been caught on the counter attack twice, Las Palmas have done really well to repel Atletico Madrid's set piece deliveries. Good defending and organisation.
83'
The question with Atletico Madrid is: for how long can they continue to grind out results like this? But then, we've been asking that for two years. They won the Liga title this way!
82'
Things have been better for Atletico Madrid in this second half, but Simeone must still be slightly concerned at how his side have toiled in the final third in recent weeks.

There hasn't been a great deal between the two teams in terms of the general play, it's just that Atletico Madrid have shown their ruthless side. They have taken their chances.

Las Palmas sub: Tana OFF, Sergio Araujo ON.

Las Palmas are pressing on the edge of the Atletico Madrid penalty area, but they are not getting any further than the 18-yard line. The visitors have about eight players in the box.

There was only 41 seconds between Mesa rippling the back of the net with his strike that went just wide, and Griezmann scoring Atletico Madrid's second of the night.
71'
Atletico Madrid have made the most of their chances, and that's the difference between them and the chasing pack. That's what makes them such a good team. That's their hallmark.

I said Atletico Madrid needed more from Griezmann in this second half, and that's exactly what they have got. The Frenchman's run was great and his finish was assured.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Las Palmas 0 Atletico Madrid 2 (68 mins - Antoine Griezmann). That's what Atletico Madrid do best! They have sucker punched Las Palmas, with Griezmann breaking through the offside trap to slot under Varas.
