Atlético de Madrid`s title chances fade after a 1-1 draw with Espanyol, with Azpilicueta and Puado in focus.

Atlético de Madrid`s aspirations for the La Liga title have taken a significant hit following a 1-1 draw against Espanyol. César Azpilicueta opened the scoring with a stunning volley in the 38th minute, giving Atlético a momentary lead. However, the match turned when Clement Lenglet committed a foul on Leandro Cabrera, leading to a penalty converted by Javi Puado in the 71st minute.

This result marks a troubling trend for Atlético, who have now dropped points in their last three league matches. They find themselves nine points adrift of league leaders Barcelona and six points behind Real Madrid, who recently leveled with Barcelona on points after a thrilling 3-2 victory over Leganés.

The upcoming fixtures are critical for Atlético, starting with a must-win clash against Sevilla, followed by matches against Real Valladolid and Las Palmas. Goalkeeper Jan Oblak emphasized the need for consistency, stating that without it, competing for the title becomes increasingly difficult. The pressure is on as Atlético aims to regain their form and stay in the title race. For more insights on La Liga, visit La Liga and Atlético de Madrid.
