Atleti extends unbeaten run as Cadiz crumbles
Atletico Madrid moved level on points with leader Real Sociedad as it extended its unbeaten run to 23 LaLiga games by thrashing Cadiz 4-0 at Wanda Metropolitano.
Diego Simeone's team – the only unbeaten side remaining in Spain's top flight – made light work of an opponent that had won its past four away matches without conceding, and Joao Felix was the star.
With help from the woeful Cadiz goalkeeper Jeremias Ledesma, Atleti raced into a two-goal lead by the 22nd minute, Joao Felix and Marcos Llorente the players on target.
Having teed up Luis Suarez for a third after the break, Joao Felix then doubled his tally with a thumping 90th-minute strike to cap off a resounding success ahead of Atleti's clash with Barcelona in 14 days' time.
