Atletico Madrid have claimed a convincing 3-1 win at Lazio in the first leg of their Europa League knockout tie.
The Italians took the lead on 18 minutes when Miroslav Klose slotted in from Antonio Candreva's pass.
It took Atletico only six minutes to draw level as Adrian Lopez found the bottom corner from inside the penalty area.
Falcao's strike ten minutes before half time gave the visitors the lead, before another goal from the dangerous striker on the hour put the match beyond Lazio's reach.
