Alves mistake costs Barcelona

BARCELONA. — Barcelona’s 11-match winning streak came to an end on Saturday when Malaga pounced on a mistake by defender Dani Alves to score a shock 1-0 win that cost the Catalans top spot in La Liga.

Elsewhere, Antoine Griezmann struck twice as Atletico Madrid produced a devastating performance to sweep Almeria aside 3-0 and move within four points of leaders Real Madrid who were playing their game in hand at Elche last night.

The stage was left clear for a Barca victory to take them two points ahead of Real but they were unable to reproduce the slick football that has seen them terrorise opponents recently. — Supersport.com.
