Match Report

Atlético Madrid closed out their home La Liga campaign with a scrappy but decisive 1-0 victory over Girona, with Ademola Lookman providing the decisive moment on a nervy afternoon at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano. The Nigerian forward struck in the 21st minute to give the hosts the lead, and it proved to be the only goal of the game. Girona pushed hard for an equaliser, outshooting Atlético 25 to 17 and holding 52% of possession, but ran into an inspired Jan Oblak, who made a remarkable 11 saves to keep the clean sheet intact. No red cards or penalties featured in the contest. With Champions League football already secured, the win leaves Atlético in the hunt for third place heading into the final rounds. For Girona, sitting just a point above the relegation zone with two games to play, the defeat makes a nerve-shredding finish to the season almost inevitable.
