Morata, Depay lead Atletico to 3-1 win over Granada; Felix booed on bench

The Hindu  

With Joao Felix on the bench and jeered by fans, Atletico Madrid began its Spanish league campaign with a 3-1 win over Granada on Monday. Felix’s attacking teammates Alvaro Morata and Memphis Depay scored a goal each, and Marcos Llorente added another to give Atletico the opening victory at the Metropolitano stadium. Depay replaced Morata in the second half and scored a spectacular goal to put Atletico back in the lead — a long-range right-footed strike that hit the top corner in the 67th minute. Defenders Cesar Azpilicueta and Caglar Soyuncu made their debuts for Atletico, which last year had a strong finish to the season and ended the league in third place, behind Real Madrid and champion Barcelona.
