Atletico Madrid withstood an Arsenal bombardment and a referee named Clement Turpin to put one foot in the Europa League final after they somehow smuggled a 1-1 draw at the Emirates on Thursday night.
It all started so badly, with Sime Vrsaljko sent off for two yellow cards with the game’s first two tackles — the only two yellows the referee dished out all night, incidentally — before five minutes later an apoplectic Diego Simeone was also sent to the stands as things threatened to unravel.
Yet…

Antoine Griezmann’s second-half score rescued Atletico Madrid a point at Deportivo.
Atletico Madrid were poor against Deportivo La Coruna but the real concern is with injured striker Fernando Torres.
The famous new manager bounce caught a distinctly below-par Atletico Madrid cold as they somehow escaped Estadio Riazor with a 1-1 draw against Deportivo La Coruna on Thursday.
Atletico were lucky to go in at the break just a single Florin Andone goal down and rode their luck in the second period before a wonderful effort from Antoine Griezmann drew them somewhat undeservedly level. However, the game was overshadowed by a sickening injury to Fernando Torres late on.

A flourish in the final 10 minutes saw Atletico Madrid claim an impressive 4-1 victory away to Sporting Gijon on Saturday. The scoreline is an unfair reflection on the home side — who dominated large periods of the game — but Atleti’s clinical streak in front of goal ensured them of the three points.
A Yannick Carrasco strike was cancelled out by Sergio Alvarez in a quick start to the second half and after both sides exchanged chances, substitute Kevin Gameiro smashed in a quick-fire hat trick…
