Atletico Madrid 1-1 Real Sociedad: Late Januzaj equaliser secures Europa League spot
Adnan Januzaj scored a dramatic late equaliser as Real Sociedad drew 1-1 with Atletico Madrid in LaLiga to secure a Europa League spot.
Adnan Januzaj's 87th-minute equaliser saw Real Sociedad fight back for a draw 1-1 at Atletico Madrid that secured a place in next season's Europa League.
Atleti looked on course for victory in their concluding LaLiga fixture at the Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday after Koke's close-range finish in the first half.
But Januzaj's curling free-kick late on went through a crowded box and found a way past the otherwise superb Jan Oblak.
The point was enough for Atleti to claim third place in LaLiga but Sociedad were the happier of the two sides as they finished in sixth spot, when defeat would have left them without European football.
