Barcelona conceded twice in 68 seconds and Real Madrid was three down at halftime as La Liga's two title favourites were each stunned by surprise defeats on Wednesday night.

By the end, Atletico Madrid, who had cruised to victory over Huesca on Tuesday and play Real on Saturday, were the biggest winners. After a stuttering start, Diego Simeone's side will jump above Real with a win at the Santiago Bernabeu.
