Substitute Matheus Cunha then put Atleti ahead again in the 76th minute after receiving a superb pass from Rodrigo de Paul.

That result seemed enough for Los Rojiblancos, but after Simeone was sent off for talking too much, Levante found a way to pick up a point.

Las Granotas were awarded another penalty when the ball lightly hit Renan Lodi's arm, and Bardhi – who has not played for two months due to injury – scored his second goal of the game in injury time.

This result is very important for Levante and their new boss Javier Pereira, although they remain stuck in the red zone with 6 points.

Meanwhile, Atleti, who are winless in their last three games, are five points behind leaders Real Sociedad (24). However, have one game savings.
