Atlético Madrid vs Barcelona, La Liga: Final Score 0-3, Brutally efficient Barça escape with massive win on the road

Barcelona will head into the final international break of the season in second place in the La Liga table and have taken a giant step towards a spot in next season’s Champions League thanks to a massive 3-0 victory away to Atlético Madrid at the Cívitas Metropolitano on Sunday night. Barça had to suffer for most of the night but were excellent defensively and brutally efficient on the other end, scoring three goals with pretty much their only three chances to earn a monster victory that opens up a nine-point gap over fifth place Atlético and practically guarantees a Top 4 finish.
