Atletico Madrid were held to a 1-1 draw on Saturday by LaLiga's second-from-bottom side Getafe, who cancelled out Angel Correa's bizarre goal on the hour with a thunderous Enes Unal penalty late on.
It was another disappointing result for Atletico in a difficult season. After finishing last in their Champions League group and being knocked out of the Copa del Rey by rivals Real Madrid last week, Atletico are struggling to secure one of the league's four spots in Europe's top competition next season.
