Half-Time Report: Diego Costa double puts Atletico Madrid ahead

Atletico Madrid have taken a 2-1 lead against Osasuna heading into the half-time interval in their La Liga match at the Estadio Vicente Calderon.

However, it was the visitors who had the first chance of the contest, and it came in the 15th minute. Sisi took a shot on goal from outside the box and it deflected off of Miranda and came off the post.

Three minutes later Diego Simeone's side went ahead as Diego Costa tapped in Juanfran's low cross from close range.

Costa doubled Atletico's advantage in the 25th minute, this time heading home an Arda Turan cross.

Atletico continued to create chances with Koke and Leo both testing Osasuna goalkeeper Andres Fernandez, but it was the visitors who scored the game's third goal.

Oriol Riera was the man who gave Osasuna some hopes of a comeback in the second half as he turned home Sisi's free kick on the stroke of half time.
