The Madrid "Atletico" opened the new season with a victory.

In the first match, the "mattress makers" defeated the "Malaga" team, which has returned to "La Liga," 2:0.

In the 70th minute, Kang-in Lee scored a stunning goal to put the team from the Spanish capital ahead.

In the 85th minute, world champion Alex Baena solidified "Atletico's" victory with a penalty. Like Marcos Llorente, both Spaniards came off the bench, and another finalist, Cristian Romero, had not yet been registered for this match.
