Atletico crush dismal Rayo in seven-goal rout

BARCELONA: Atletico Madrid dismantled city rivals Rayo Vallecano 7-0 in Monday night with a ruthless display and their largest ever away win in La Liga. Antoine Griezmann opened the scoring early on, before his strike partner Memphis Depay netted the second from close range from Saul Niguez’s cross. Atletico lost the Dutch forward to injury in the first half, but Nahuel Molina slid home the third to kill the game before half-time. Substitute Alvaro Morata netted in the 73rd minute and then again after Angel Correa grabbed the fifth, with Marcos Llorente finishing the rout late on. “We had a great game from the start, with a lot of intensity,” Antoine Griezmann told Movistar. “They’re three important points and I’m very happy with the team’s work today.” Atletico’s emphatic victory took them second in the table, two points behind leaders Real Madrid. Rayo had started the season well, with two wins in their first two matches, but were brought crashing back down to earth by Diego Simeone’s side. “They were better in every way,” said Rayo midfielder Oscar Valentin. “We are not this bad — we just have to continue and forget about what happened today.” Earlier Getafe snatched a 1-0 home win over Alaves, their first triumph of the season.

Spanish soccer federation leaders ask president Rubiales to resign over his kiss of player

GENEVA: Leading officials within the Spanish Football Federation asked suspended president Luis Rubiales to resign on Monday because of his behavior at the Women’s World Cup, including kissing a player on the lips after Spain won the championship match. The heads of the regional bodies that make up the federation (RFEF) made the request in a collective statement. “After the latest developments and the unacceptable behavior that has caused great damage to the image of Spanish soccer, the presidents request that Luis Rubiales resign immediately as president of the RFEF,” the statement said. Earlier Monday, the federation asked UEFA to suspend it from international competitions because of government interference related to Rubiales. However, in their statement, the heads of the regional bodies urged interim federation president Pedro Rocha to withdraw that request immediately. The federation’s request for a suspension was widely seen as an attempt to silence some of Rubiales’ critics, including government ministers who have asked for his removal.
