Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez continued his deadly run of form by scoring twice on Monday but Celta Vigo debutant Facundo Ferreyra had the final say in a 2-2 draw which interrupted the Liga leaders' eight-game winning streak.

Atletico dropped points for the first time since losing to Real Madrid on Dec. 12 but now have 51 from 20 games and lead second-placed Barcelona and champions Real, who are third, by eight points with a match in hand on both teams.

Atletico were missing six players due to COVID-19, including record signing Joao Felix, and they fell behind in the 13th minute to a well worked goal from Celta when Santi Mina ghosted into the box unmarked to turn home a cross from Hugo Mallo.
