MADRID, Spain -- Atletico Madrid moved one step closer to
its first Spanish league title in 18 years with a 2-0 win
over Elche on Friday, and now turns its attention to
receiving Chelsea in the Champions League semifinals.
Atleticos eighth straight win in the league kept it in
control of its destiny and needing three wins in the
final four rounds to claim its first league title since
1996. Defender Miranda scored the opening goal at Vicente
Calderon Stadium in the 72nd minute when he floated his
header just inside the upright before Diego Costa added a
penalty he had earned in stoppage time for his 27th
league goal of the season. Atletico needed goalkeeper
Courtois Thibaut to make successive saves around the
half-hour mark, and didnt lose its composure after David
Villa had a penalty saved in the 51st. Atletico
provisionally extended its lead over Real Madrid to six
points, with Barcelona another point behind. Madrid wont
play Valladolid until May 7 as it rests after winning the
Copa del Rey title and prepares to host Bayern Munich on
Wednesday in the other Champions League semifinal.
Barcelona hosts Athletic Bilbao on Sunday needing to
rebound from losing in the Copa del Rey final and keep
alive its dwindling hopes of defending its league title.
Regardless of the two powerhouses results, Atletico can
break their combined nine-year hold on the league crown
by winning three of its four remaining games at Valencia
and Levante, then home against Malaga, before the season
finale at Barcelona. "All the games here on in are going
to be tough," said Atletico coach Diego Simeone. "We have
made it through one final and have four to go. I dont
even want to think that winning three will be enough. All
our effort and work make us focus on the four games left,
and three are away from home. "Now we need to recover the
best we can for Chelsea, a game that is very important
for us, our fans and the history of the club." Diego
Costa showed no signs of the deep cut in his left shin he
received last week when he slammed into the goal post
while scoring at Getafe, with the Brazilian striker
causing Elches defence trouble from the start. He earned
a penalty when fouled from behind by Ionut Sapunaru, who
was sent off with his second yellow card, giving Diego
Costa the chance to pull within one goal of Cristiano
Ronaldos league-leading tally of 28 goals for Madrid this
campaign. Courtois did his part by making saves to deny
Javi Marquez and Sapunaru, again proving his major
contribution to Atleticos championship bid. Simeone sent
on midfielders Raul Garcia and Jose Sosa early in the
second half, and both set up scoring opportunities. Raul
was fouled to produce a penalty, only for Villa to have
his spot kick smothered by goalie Manuel Herrera before
he was replaced by Sosa. Sosa picked out Miranda at the
far post for him to lift his corner kick into the side of
the net and set Atletico on its way. "It was a set piece
we had worked on," said Miranda, the latest role player
to step up at big moments and score key goals for
Atletico. "We know how to dig down when we have to. We
have four finals left and we have to win them."
