Las Palmas end 36-year wait to claim victory over Atletico Madrid

Atletico had the chance to claim the top spot in La Liga, but Las Palmas had other plans. The game began with Atletico's trademark aggressive counter-attacks, with Rodrigo Riquelme posing a significant threat, forcing Alvaro Valles to make two critical saves.

However, Las Palmas displayed remarkable composure and control, dictating the tempo. The turning point came ten minutes into the second half. A skillful move by Sergi Cardona on the right wing set up Javi Munoz, who dummied the ball for Kirian Rodriguez to slot it into the net.

Following this pivotal moment, the match took a different turn. While Las Palmas remained steadfast, Atletico Madrid made tactical changes, including the substitution of Antoine Griezmann and Koke Resurreccion.

Las Palmas continued to push forward, and with 15 minutes left, Munir El Haddadi's drive and Benito Ramirez's fierce shot secured their second goal.

Atletico Madrid attempted a late comeback, with Alvaro Morata finding the net, but Las Palmas held on for a historic victory, their first against Atletico since 1987.
