Luka Sucic's incredible goal secures Real Sociedad a draw against Atletico Madrid

Atletico's latest result sees them move up to third place, tying with Villarreal in points. However, they still trail the league leaders Barcelona by seven points. On the other hand, Real Sociedad currently sit in 15th place in the standings.

"It's a bad feeling because we wanted to win the game," Atletico defender Axel Witsel said.

"We let in a late goal and it hurts, we had a good game defensively... everyone was working hard.

"The goal we let in was a great strike but I think we could have avoided it."

Former Manchester City striker Alvarez sent Atletico ahead inside the first minute after Antoine Griezmann backheeled the ball into his path.

Griezmann, who recently retired from international duty with France, made his 400th appearance for the club.

Oblak made a superb save to keep out Nayef Aguerd's close-range effort and also denied Takefusa Kubo.

Atletico looked set to claim three points before Sucic's late intervention.

Rodrigo de Paul gave the ball away cheaply in his own half and Sucic hit a first-time shot that spun over Oblak and into the net.
