Thomas Teye Partey played as a right-back defender for Atletico Madrid in their hard-fought win over Eibar ion Saturday.

The 23-year-old did not disappoint as he stuck to his task gamely though Eibar's movement but attacking interplay left him out of position at times

A goal from Saul Niguez all but secured a top-three La Liga finish for Atletico Madrid in a 1-0 victory over Eibar.

A low cross from Godin on the left found Saul at the edge of the box, and the midfielder swept a wonderful effort into the bottom-left corner of the net.
