Barcelona Edge Atletico In Thriller To Take Control Of La Liga Title Race

Barcelona produced a dramatic late comeback to defeat Atletico Madrid 4-2 on Sunday, landing a significant blow in the La Liga title race.
Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres struck in stoppage time to overturn a two-goal deficit, ensuring Barcelona reclaimed the top spot after Real Madrid had temporarily taken the lead by beating Villarreal on Saturday.
Both Barcelona and Real Madrid now sit level on 60 points, but the Catalan side holds a game in hand. Atletico, meanwhile, find themselves four points adrift after crumbling at home to Hansi Flick's resurgent team, capping off a miserable week following their Champions League exit.
The way we play, the confidence we have-it's fantastic to see, said Flick, whose side remains in contention for a treble. We will give everything to win trophies, and today's performance gives us even more belief.
Barcelona had suffered late setbacks against Atletico twice this season, but this time, they turned the tables, extending their unbeaten run across all competitions to 18 games.
