Atleti narrowed the gap to the Camp Nou side at the top of the Spanish top tier, but that is not where their focus lies
Diego Simeone insists Atletico Madrid are focusing solely on themselves and not on the gap to La Liga leaders Barcelona or their advantage over third-placed Valencia.
Atletico moved, at least temporarily, within eight points of Barca and six clear of Valencia with a 3-0 win over Las Palmas on Sunday.
Goals from Antoine Griezmann and Fernando Torres effectively secured a first win in four games in all competitions, before Thomas Partey added late gloss to the scoreline.
