Atlético Madrid 3-1 Besiktas – Highlights


Atletico Madrid took a huge step towards a place in the Europa League quarter-finals with a comfortable 3-1 first-leg win over Besiktas.

The hosts had already missed two great chances to take the lead through Eduardo Salvio and Radamel Falcao before Salvio made amends with a lovely piece of skill to skip past Veli Kavlak and slot under Cenk Gonen for the opener after 24 minutes.

The Argentinian made it two moments later with another sweet finish and Adrian Lopez added a third before half-time.

Besiktas were given some hope for the return leg next week when Simao Sabrosa pulled a goal back with a stunning volley seven minutes after half-time.
