Miranda and Diego Costa spell a penalty striken 2-0 win for Atletico Madrid against Elche. La Liga Leaders Atletico Madrid confirmed their title bid by registering another win against lower table side Elche. The team from the capital could have scored more than 2 had David Villa not missed a penalty earlier on before Costa slipped in one... It was a nerve looking at a Costa who has missed 3 spots getting to the ball but it would have been worse finding who to take the slot had Villa been on pitch. Atletico are 7 adrift of Real who are not in action this weekend, and 8 of Barca who play against stubborn side Bilbao on Sunday. Atletico host Chelsea in the Champions League in mid week
