Angel Correa scored the only goal of the game as Atletico Madrid boosted their La Liga title hopes with three points at home against Malaga.
Correa broke the deadlock, via a deflection, with just over an hour on the clock and responded by racing over to Madrid's Argentinian assistant coach German Burgos to celebrate.
The victory sent them top of the pile, but Barcelona hit the summit after routing Sporting Gijon.
