Costa had a quiet evening at the Bernabeu, except for a couple of good goalscoring chances.

He put the ball in the back of the net in the first half, but the Atletico Madrid forward was penalised for a foul on Ramos in the buildup to the goal.

Later in the first half, Navas made a stunning save to deny Costa once again. His effort towards the near post was well saved by the Madrid shot-stopper.

On the other hand, Antoine Griezmann took his chance in the second half with great confidence.

He combined well with Vitolo and thwarted Navas' efforts to make it 1-1 in the 57th minute. He was Atletico Madrid's best attacking threat on the night.
