Atletico Madrid beat Celta Vigo 2 – 0 and have taken first position in the La Liga again,
Their consistent success in taking the fight to Real Madrid and Barcelona is a pretty amazing David v/s Goliath type story.
The two richest clubs in the La Liga have used their financial might to buy the best players and it shows. Nine of the past eleven La Liga seasons have ended either with Real Madrid or Barcelona .
The La Liga is pretty much a two horse race with the other horses around just to make the track look a bit fuller.
But Atletico – despite their relatively modest budget – wrested the title from them last season and are serious contenders again this season.
And that’s pretty amazing.
