Diego Simeone does not remember such a crisis at the start of the season on the Atletico Madrid bench.

"Colconeros" still have no victory, and in the 3rd round of La Liga they only won their second point - and that was in an away draw against Alaves 1:1, for the worst start (after three rounds) since 2009.

Atletico opened the championship with a defeat in Barcelona against Espanyol, then faltered against Elche at home, and today they were looking for a way out of a small crisis - they failed in that attempt.

Giuliano Simeone gave the visitors the lead in Vitoria in the seventh minute, and it turned out that the final score was set in the 13th minute when Carlos Vicente converted a penalty.

The game lasted 105 minutes, and Atletico tried in every way to achieve their first triumph until the end, and had their best chance in the final minute when Marcos Llorente was inaccurate.

The mood is much better on the other side of Madrid, as Real has the maximum nine points after three rounds.

Mallorca lost at the Bernabeu (2:1), and everything was decided in the space of fifty seconds at the end of the first half when Arda Guler i Vinicius Junior turned the score around.

The scorer for Mallorca was Vedad Murici.
