Alexander Sorloth's double helped Atletico Madrid come from behind to beat Leganes 3-1 in La Liga on Sunday. Diego Simeone's team struggled against the minnows from the south of Madrid but after Yvan Neyou blasted the visitors ahead Sorloth levelled with a fine finish and Antoine Griezmann slid home the second.

Norwegian target man Sorloth wrapped up the victory late in stoppage time with a poacher's finish. Victory took Atletico third, cutting the gap on leaders Barcelona to four points before the Catalans host Sevilla later Sunday. "In the second half we improved a bit, above all in speeding up the game," Simeone told Movistar.

Atletico came into the game with just one victory in their last five matches across all competitions. They shared 1-1 draws with Rayo Vallecano, rivals Real Madrid and Real Sociedad, as well as suffering a 4-0 thrashing at Benfica in the Champions League.

No supporters filled the lower part of the Metropolitano stadium's south stand, closed by the Spanish football federation after some Atletico fans threw objects at Real Madrid players during the derby in September.
