Atl\u00e9tico de Madrid beat Real Madrid<\/a> 2-1 in the Madrid derby on Sunday, Giuliano Simeone<\/a> pivotal and Dean Huijsen<\/a>\u2019s dismissal left Real with 10 for almost all of the second half. The game came in the seventh round of La Liga.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n L’\u00c9quipe notes the Argentine forward silenced debate over his selection with a big display. He won the penalty for the opener, then set up David to make it 2-0, while grafting tirelessly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n First-half flashpoints piled up. Huijsen was often on the edge and lost a fierce duel with Kang-in Lee on 22 minutes. Cristian Romero<\/a> was booked for a studs-up challenge on Jude Bellingham on 37 minutes, and Kang-in Lee could have been sent off for a strong tackle just before the interval yet escaped. He was involved in Atl\u00e9tico\u2019s second.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The match tipped after the restart when Huijsen conceded a penalty in his own box on 49 minutes and was sent off. Vinicius endured a quiet night, firing two efforts off target and offering little cover for Marc Cucurella, and was replaced on 54 minutes by Yan Diomand\u00e9.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Thibaut Courtois limited the damage, producing a superb save from a Cristian Romero header on 67 minutes, and he could do nothing about either Atl\u00e9tico goal. Later, Romero headed straight to Diomand\u00e9, who was close to scoring on 77 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
