rewrite this title Nico at the double in Atletico win, Juventus thrash Pisa

Atletico Madrid will go into their Champions League tie with Tottenham on a high after they claimed a dramatic late 3-2 win over Real Sociedad in LaLiga.

Alexander Sorloth’s volley against his former club gave Atletico a fifth-minute lead, though that was quickly extinguished as Carlos Soler found the top-left corner in superb fashion.

Nicolas Gonzalez slotted home in the 67th minute from Antoine Griezmann’s clever backheel to restore Atletico’s advantage, yet Sociedad responded immediately through a rocket from the edge of the area from Mikel Oyarzabal.

But substitute Gonzalez’s second settled the game nine minutes from time as he met Matteo Ruggeri’s left-wing cross with a fine header into the bottom-left corner.

While Atletico have no hope of bridging the 13-point gap to leaders Barcelona, who won 1-0 at Athletic Club thanks to a brilliant Lamine Yamal goal, they are three points ahead of fourth-placed Villarreal in the race to finish third. Villarreal host Elche on Sunday.

Elsewhere in LaLiga, relegation-threatened Mallorca drew 2-2 at Osasuna in a game both sides finished with 10 men. There was heartbreak for 10-man Levante, as a 94th-minute equaliser saw Girona snatch a 1-1 draw against LaLiga’s second-bottom club.

Lucas Da Cunha settled the contest for Como, scoring what proved to be the winner in the 76th minute after earlier teeing up Martin Baturina for the opener.

Atalanta are five points off the top four despite a second-half fightback at Udinese.

Gianluca Scamacca scored twice in the space of four minutes, his second coming 11 minutes from the end of normal time as Atalanta came from 2-0 down to claim a point.
