Atletico Madrid suffered a slip-up in the LaLiga title race as the leaders were held to a 1-1 draw by Levante after a remarkable miss from Angel Correa.

Diego Simeone’s men fell behind in an open contest as Enis Bardhi struck first for Levante in the 17th minute.

Marcos Llorente’s deflected strike drew Atletico level eight minutes before half-time but, following Correa’s astonishing miss in the second half, the visitors were left to settle for a point.

Their advantage over rivals Real Madrid stands at six points and Atletico still have a game in hand. Simeone, however, will likely be disappointed at this missed opportunity in a season where the title is theirs for the taking.
