Late penalty miss by Elche, Atletico Madrid wins

Atletico Madrid defeated the struggling Elche by a 1-0 on Saturday. In the entire match, the only goal was scored by Marcos Llorente in the 23rd minute of the match with a deflected shot, but he gave away the penalty in the 90th minute when Atleti defended a free-kick after being on their slight lead.

The spot-kick by Fidel Chaves, the Elche midfielder beats the goalkeeper Jan Oblak but gave another twist in which Atletico had 2 ruled-out goals for offside and after a VAR review, a penalty award. The penalty of Fidel threw Atletico in the race for the title, while Elche was yet at the 18th place and in the relegation zone. Elche could have moved out of the relegation zone if the score was made by Fidel from the spot.
