Feyenoord were left to rue what could have been as Atlético Madrid battled from behind to secure a 3-2 victory in the UEFA Champions League group stage at Estádio Cívitas Metropolitano on Wednesday thanks to a decisive Álvaro Morata goal.
Morata put Atlético Madrid ahead with his second goal of the game after 47 minutes. The striker finished low into the left corner after combining with Nahuel Molina.
Victory for Diego Simeone's side also came thanks to a goal from Antoine Griezmann, with Dávid Hancko on target for the visitors, who also got on the scoresheet thanks to an own goal from Hermoso.
Hermoso put the ball in his own net to help the away team make a flying start in the seventh minute. But it proved a short-lived lead as Morata, who saw his effort hit the woodwork before nestling in the net, hauled the sides level five minutes later for the first of his double.
Hancko then edged Feyenoord back in front after 34 minutes. It was 2-2 after Griezmann levelled the scores 14 minutes later - finding the net after a corner with a volley. The hosts went in search of a winner and it duly arrived after 47 minutes from Morata.
With Feyenoord having failed to take anything from the game, Hancko, Gernot Trauner, Ayase Ueda, Calvin Stengs, and Yankuba Minteh will rue not making the most of the good chances that came their way in the match.
