Barcelona came from behind away from home to beat 10-man Atletico Madrid 2-1 and take a big step toward winning La Liga after Real Madrid lost at Mallorca on Saturday.

Robert Lewandowski scored the decider in the 87th minute with his shoulder off the rebound of a save by the Atletico goalkeeper. Barcelona has a seven-point lead over Madrid, which lost 2-1 at Mallorca earlier.

Atletico, which dropped 19 points off the lead in fourth place, opened the scoring at Metropolitano Stadium through Giuliano Simeone in the 39th. Marcus Rashford equalized in the 42nd, and Atletico went a man down in first-half stoppage time when Nico Gonzlez was sent off for a second yellow card.

The winning goal was almost by accident. Joo Cancelo made a nice run through the left side of the area with a couple of cutback moves to get past defenders but his shot was parried by keeper Juan Muso and rebounded in off Lewandowski’s shoulder. Atletico has lost three in a row in all tournaments and stayed one point behind third-placed Villarreal, which visits Girona on Monday.
