Probably nobody was expecting such a comeback by Espanyol.  Tongue  How did Atletico Madrid managed to lose like that?

When Alvarez scored a lovely free-kick and they kept it at 1-0 for a long time, I thought maybe it might end in a draw at worst. But this was way beyond the expectations...

A bad start for Simeone's students at the end of the day. I'm curious about whether we will watch the same Atletico Madrid this season too.

Diego Simeone will be disappointed with his team. They were the favourites and they also got the first goal. It would have been ideal for them to score more goals or defend very well in order not to concede. It was Pere Milla's stunning header that made my day. It made me recall those days of amateur football games where I was one of the best headers. That goal will compete for the best of the season. 

This win will be a morale booster for Espanyol. It has shown them that they have the capacity to beat any side. Atletico Madrid will have to go back to the drawing board to identify their lapses and improve accordingly.
