Partey’s Atletico Madrid end winless run in comeback victory over Espanyol
Thomas Partey was in the Atletico Madrid side which claimed a 3-1 victory over Espanyol at the Wanda Metropolitano in La Liga on Sunday afternoon.
The Spanish capital club suffered a disappointing 2-1 Champions League loss at Bayer Leverkusen in midweek, with the Ghanaian midfielder scoring an own goal in the tie.
That result stretched their winless run to three games having drawn at Alaves and Sevilla earlier in the league.
Though Sergi Darder gave Espanyol the lead on Sunday, Atleti rallied back through Angel Correa, Alvaro Morata and Koke to move them within a point of leaders Barcelona.
