MADRID - Atletico Madrid missed the chance to go clear at the top of La Liga on Saturday when they were held to a frustrating goalless draw at home to Celta Vigo, dropping points for the second week in a row.
Atletico had earned a spirited 2-2 draw against Juventus in the Champions League three days earlier and they created far more chances than Celta but some impressive saves from visiting goalkeeper Ruben Blanco denied them the goal they craved. Atletico, who saw their 100% start to the season ended by last week’s 2-0 defeat at Real Sociedad, are second in the standings on 10 points after five games.
Atletico coach Diego Simeone said his side were still feeling the effects of the Juventus game, in which they came from two goals down to snatch a draw, and rued his side’s lack of composure in front of goal.
