Almeria 1-1 Atletico Madrid: Diego Simeone's Atletico drop points away at Almeria in first game since departure of Joao Felix to Chelsea...as Angel Correa's opener is cancelled out by El Bilal Toure

Atletico Madrid began life without Joao Felix by being held to a 1-1 draw by Almeria on Sunday.

The Portuguese forward left Madrid for six-month loan to Chelsea last week and in his absence Diego Simeone's men dropped points away from home, leaving them clinging on to fourth spot in La Liga on goal difference from Villarreal.

Angel Correa got Atletico off to the perfect start by opening the scoring in the 18th minute, but they were pegged back before the break thanks to an equaliser from El Bilal Toure, as the teams had to settle for a point a piece.
