Referee Jose Luis  Gonzalez Gonzalez rightly waved away the appeal with the help of video  technology.Lemar nearly turned provider after the second-half restart with a  neat cutback towards Costa, but the forward was unable to prod home from six  yards.   Griezmann suffered no such profligacy, though, when he reacted sharply to get  on the end of Stefan Savic's knock-down and hooked in his first goal of the  season.But it was Oblak who proved Atleti's hero late on, as the goalkeeper  pulled off a string of superb saves to keep Rayo at bay and seal the points.</blockquote>
