For the second week in a row Atlético Madrid were held to a stalemate by a newly promoted club, Simeone’s side unable to find the route to goal in a 0-0 draw at neighbours Leganés on Saturday. A capacity 11,000 crowd turned up at the Butarque stadium to see their team’s first ever home game in the top flight, fired up by their victory at Celta the week before. Griezmann was back in the line-up after serving out a one match ban from last season, and he had the best chances before the break, having a strike ruled out for offside and coming up against the excellent Serantes. Saúl and Gameiro also went close before the break, and after the restart Serantes was in action again to keep out Gameiro, Carrasco and Fernando Torres. Oblak had to save from Guerrero though and Godín blocked an effort from Víctor Díaz before time ran out, but (with their team now in third place), the supporters celebrated the result as if they had won the cup final.
