La Liga wrap: Atletico Madrid stun Real Madrid thanks to Alvaro Morata brace

Alvaro Morata struck with two headers as Atletico Madrid clinched a rare LaLiga win over Real Madrid, winning 3-1 at the Metropolitano Stadium.

Morata and Antoine Griezmann gave Atletico a 2-0 lead inside 18 minutes and after Toni Kroos reduced the deficit before the break, Spain captain Morata headed his second against his former club a minute after the restart.

Atletico, who had won only one of their previous 14 league meetings against their rivals, halted Real's five-game winning start to the league season.

Villarreal's former Liverpool defender Alberto Moreno was sent off as his side drew 1-1 at Rayo Vallecano.

Kike Perez equalised for Vallecano a minute after Alexander Sorloth had fired Villarreal into a first-half lead and Moreno was shown his second yellow card in the 77th minute.

Real Sociedad sealed their second league win of the season in a seven-goal thriller at home against Getafe.

The visitors led 2-1 at half-time through Carles Alena's header and Borja Mayoral's penalty after Takefusa Kubo had given Sociedad an early lead.

Mikel Oyarzabal's second-half double - his first coming from the penalty spot - sandwiched Brais Mendez's effort to put the home side 4-2 up before Juan Latasa headed a late third for Getafe.

Guido Rodriguez's second-half equaliser earned Real Betis a 1-1 home draw against Cadiz, who had led at half-time through Chris Ramos.

Las Palmas overcame the second-half dismissal of Mika Marmol to secure their first win of the season, 1-0 at home against second-bottom Granada, thanks to Kirian Rodriguez's stoppage-time goal.
