But Diego Godin, Filipe Luis and Nicolas Gaitan fluffed their lines with big chances to leave Atletico on the edge of the European abyss. "We all know the quality Atletico have and I want to thank my players," said proud Qarabag coach Gurban Gurbanov. Of the 10 goals Atletico have conceded this season, seven have now come from headers as a former strength of Simeone's teams has quickly become an alarming weakness. Moments later Atletico could have found themselves 2-0 behind but for a brilliant goal line clearance from Stefan Savic. And Sehic saved Qarabag again in the dying seconds with a brilliant block from Gaitan, while Atletico were also reduced to 10 men when Savic was shown a second yellow.
