David Villa ended his seven-game scoring drought with a double as Atletico Madrid closed to within a point of Barcelona at the top of La Liga with a 5-0 win over Real Betis.
.
Eighteen-year-old sensation Oliver Torres got the hosts off the perfect start on his full league debut with the fastest goal this season after just 13 seconds.
.
Villa then made the game safe with a quickfire brace just after halftime.
.
La Liga's top-scorer Diego Costa took his tally to 13 goals in 13 games in all competitions when he slotted home from Villa's pass 25 minutes from time before Gabi rounded off the scoring in stoppage time.
.
Torres had been handed a start in place of the injured Arda Turan and the Spanish Under-21 international was in the right place at the right time as he slotted home at the back post from Koke's cut- back.
.
Diego Godin should have made it two on 16 minutes when he was left in space inside the box but somehow headed Torres' perfect cross wide.
.
Costa also ought to have scored twice before halftime as he firstly slotted wide when clean through on goal and was then denied by Betis keeper Guillermo Sara who stood up well to turn his effort behind for a corner.
Barcelona has to do very well in situations like this cause they need more wins than losses right now.
