Concern for Fernando Torres overshadowed Atletico Madrid's 1-1 draw at Deportivo la Coruna on Thursday as the former Liverpool striker suffered a "traumatic brain injury" after being knocked unconscious. "Fernando Torres has a traumatic brain injury and has been transferred to hospital for tests," Atletico said in a statement. Players from both sides immediately called for medical attention when Torres hit the ground. Atletico had to play out seven minutes of stoppage time with 10 men as they had already made all three substitutions. Atletico responded after half-time and equalised in stunning fashion 22 minutes from time when Antoine Griezmann thrashed home a shot from fully 30 yards.
