Felix strikes, Atletico Madrid move on

-

Barcelona: Portugal forward Joao Felix scored two goals as Atletico Madrid moved into a Champions League spot with a crushing 5-0 win at Osasuna.

The 20-year-old Portugal forward, a £113m signing from Benfica last July, struck either side of half-time before three goals in the last 11 minutes. Marcos Llorente made it 3-0, and Alvaro Morata and Yannick Carrasco added to Osasuna’s pain with late goals. Atletico, who had started the day sixth in the table, climb to fourth.

They are two points behind thirdplace­d Sevilla after their biggest win of the season, while their remaining nine games include a trip to leaders Barcelona on July 1.

Other results: Eibar 2-3 Ath Bilbao, Real Valladolid 0-0 Celta Vigo.
