Goals from Club Brugge forwards Kamal Sowah and Ferran Jutgla saw the Belgians beat Atletico Madrid 2-0 at home on Tuesday to extend their unbeaten run in Champions League Group B this season.

Jutgla doubled the lead in the 62nd after winger Tajon Buchanan calmly waited for the right moment to set up the Spaniard inside the box.

Atletico had a chance to get back into the match with a penalty 15 minutes later but Antoine Griezmann lashed the ball against the bar and moments later the Frenchman thought he had scored but his effort was ruled out for offside.

"[We lacked] being clinical," Atletico midfielder Koke said afterward. "In the first half we had a couple of chances that we could have done better with. In the second half we had the penalty. They were more clinical in the two areas than us, so in the end they're just winners.

"It's football. We played against an opponent who are doing well in the Champions League. They took their chances well. The group is tight. We'll have to push, because as it is it isn't enough."

Brugge, who have yet to concede a goal in the campaign, remain top of the group on nine points. Atletico, Bayer Leverkusen and FC Porto have three points each after Porto picked up their first points with a 2-0 win against the Germans.

Brugge and Atletico will face each other again next Wednesday in the reverse fixture in Madrid.

"It's practically [a final]," added Koke of next week's return match. "We'll have to win the three games we have left if we want to be in the round of 16."
