Atletico Madrid has stumbled for a second straight game in the Spanish league after squandering its lead in a 1-1 draw with promoted Elche

In the eighth minute, Atletico was building from midfield when defender David Hancko spotted a cleverly timed Alexander Sorloth run up top. Hancko spun the ball into Sorloth’s alley along the left side, and Sorloth wrapped the ball around Elche goalkeeper Matias Dituro to give Atletico a 1-0 lead.

Elche keeper Matias Dituro made several crucial saves in the second half to keep the visiting side in the game as Atletico remained winless in the league.
