Fernando Torres ended a wait of more than four months for a league goal in style, scoring twice to ease Atletico past Leganes 2-0 on Saturday.
Torres earned a penalty and then finished off Antoine Griezmann's missed spot kick for this first goal
He later chipped in a second goal shortly after half-time to double the advantage.
They were Torres' first league goals since he scored twice to round off a 5-0 win over Sporting Gijon on Sept. 17.
The former Liverpool star's only other goal this season came against a lower-tier adversary in the Copa del Rey.
Atletico bounced back after consecutive draws to remain in fourth place, seven points behind Madrid.
