The championship battle in Spain is still open.

Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid met tonight (Sunday) in a hot derby at the Metropolitano Stadium and parted ways 1-1, a result that mainly serves Barcelona.

If until a month ago it seemed that the Colchoneros were sailing for a bachelor’s degree since 2014, now the Catalans are only 5 points away from the lead.

Atletico took the lead in the 15th minute when Luis Suarez received a great depth delivery from Marcus Jornetta, entered the field and with the outside of the shoe subdued Tibo Courtois.

The Uruguayan broke in the form of five games without a conquest, specifically against the sworn opponent. 

When it seemed that Diego Simeone and his trainees were on their way to a small-big victory, Real's man in the last two years woke up.

In the 88th minute, Casimiro found Karim Benzema who returned to the squad just before the critical confrontation and was responsible for the result of the game.

Who'll win #LaLigaSantander 20/21?
