Friday Recap

An entertaining first half brought three goals and Atletico head into half-time 2-1 up thanks to strikes from Marcos Llorente and Thomas Partey.

The visitors made a bright start and opened the scoring on 15 minutes after good link-up play down the right between Angel Correa and Vitolo. Correa's cross took a deflection off Gabriel and fell to Llorente, who poked home from close range:

Valencia grew into the game and equalised five minutes before half-time. Maxi Gomez chested down a corner in from the right and fizzed the ball back across goal for a stooping Gabriel to nod past goalkeeper Jan Oblak:

Yet the hosts were level for only three minutes as Atletico hit back quickly. Thomas dispossessed Valencia captain Dani Parejo in midfield, surged towards the penalty area and unleashed a ferocious low shot that flew past Jaume Domenech (UK video only):

Parejo was caught in possession again at the start of the second half. Correa nicked the ball off the skipper on the edge of the penalty area but slipped and saw the chance disappear.

Valencia equalised for the second time just before the hour. A free-kick floated in from deep by Parejo was touched home by Kondogbia despite the close attention of Llorente.

The chances continued to flow in the second half, with winger Ferran Torres a constant threat for Valencia down the right. The 19-year-old teed up both Kevin Gameiro and Gomez with good crosses into the box, only to see both players blaze shots over the bar from close range:

Meanwhile, Valencia needed Domenech to made a crucial save from Alvaro Morata at the other end. The striker met Sime Vrsaljko's pass with a powerful header but was denied by the Spaniard at full stretch.

A frantic finish saw Oblak save from Gomez before Jose Gaya volleyed an effort across goal and just wide as Atletico held on for a point.
