Atletico Madrid v Barcelona ratings: Lemar 9, Suarez 8; Araujo 3, Depay 6

ATLETICO RATINGS: Jan Oblak - 7, Was decisive when the ball was in the air and stopped any shots well when required, especially after closing down the angle for Philippe Coutinho. AFP

Stefan Savic - 8, His defending was no-nonsense, clearly to the frustration of Memphis Depay in the first half, and he never looked like being beaten. AFP

Jose Gimenez - 7, Looked awkward a couple of times when the ball was played behind him, but the Uruguayan’s performance was mainly a solid one. Getty Images

Mario Hermoso – 6, He was a bit overly aggressive at times - verging on rash - but the defender did everything he needed to do in order to ensure that Atleti kept a clean sheet. His ball distribution wasn’t the best. AP Photo

Marcos Llorente - 7, Made some great runs down the channel and was disciplined defensively when required. Also did well in the middle. Getty Images

Rodrigo De Paul - 5, Looked strong in the Atleti midfield but overhit a few passes and was reckless in the challenge at times, getting booked for a mistimed sliding tackle on Sergino Dest. AP Photo

Koke - 6, Put in a disciplined performance to help facilitate the more attacking players around him. Booked for a foul on Fati. AFP

Thomas Lemar - 9, Scored the opener with a great finish and then assisted the second goal after racing past Nico Gonzalez and putting Luis Suarez into a great position. Getty Images

Yannick Carrasco - 6, Pressed brilliantly, which helped create a chance for Joao Felix, and almost saw an overhit cross from a free kick dip under the crossbar. AP Photo

Joao Felix - 7, Looked a real handful in the first half as Ronaldo Araujo struggled to deal with him. The attacker contributed some good play in the build-up to the opener, although he faded in the second half. Getty Images

Luis Suarez - 8, The Uruguayan assisted the opener with a nice pass, and having missed a good chance to score a goal of his own, he was never going to do it a second time, coolly slotting the ball past Marc-André ter Stegen. Getty Images

SUB Kieran Trippier (De Paul, HT) - 6, Put in a committed display and didn’t hold back in his tackles, helping to ensure that Barcelona never had a chance of getting back into the game. Getty Images

SUB Angel Correa (Felix, 72’) – N/R, Made some decent runs but was quiet after coming off the bench. EPA

SUB Antoine Griezmann (Suarez, 72’) – N/R, Had three attempts at playing passes to get his teammates through on goal but couldn’t quite get them right. Getty Images

SUB Renan Lodi (Hermoso, 81’) – N/R, Didn’t have much to do but managed to help see out the game. EPA

SUB Felipe (Carrasco, 82’) – N/R, Like Renan Lodi, he did what was required of him during a short spell on the pitch. EPA

BARCELONA RATINGS: Marc-André ter Stegen - 6, Had no chance of stopping Lemar’s goal and was sat down by Suarez for the second. Made some routine stops. Getty Images

Óscar Mingueza - 5, Was almost punished after he lost the ball cheaply in the early stages, then completely outrun by Lemar for the second goal, though he did make some good interventions to stop Carrasco. Getty Images

Gerard Piqué - 6, Nothing he could do for the second goal despite scrambling to get back on the goal line, as he was left stranded by his teammates. Tried to hold things together but couldn’t quite manage it. Getty Images

Ronald Araújo - 3, Was the main culprit who made things difficult for Pique. Struggled to deal with Joao Felix early on and was beaten easily for the second goal. In the second half, he got away with a poor touch that allowed Griezmann to get behind. AFP

Sergiño Dest - 5, Made a couple of decent runs forward but was fairly predictable and struggled defensively at times. AFP

Frenkie de Jong - 6, Had some lovely moments with intelligent passing and movement, but wasn’t involved enough to make a real impact. Came agonisingly close to getting on the end of Depay’s cushioned header. Getty Images

Sergio Busquets - 6, Put in a valiant display and passed the ball nicely at times but was unable to make the difference. Getty Images

Nico González - 4, There will be more games in the future, but this is one for the youngster to forget, as he struggled to have any real impact and allowed Lemar to run off him for the opener before being hooked at half time. AP Photo

Gavi - 6, Was one of Barcelona’s better performers as he tried to make things happen, and did well to pick out Coutinho after making an interception and bursting up the pitch. Booked for blatantly barging Lemar over. EPA

Memphis Depay - 6, Was Barcelona’s most threatening player with some good runs behind. His cushioned header came agonisingly close to finding De Jong, while his free kick wasn’t too far over the bar. AFP

Philippe Coutinho - 6, Showed moments of ingenuity, but his game will be remembered for nearly moments. The Brazilian came inches from the bottom corner with a half-volley, while he failed to make the most of his opportunity after being played through by Gavi. AFP

SUB Sergi Roberto (Nico, HT) - 6, Usually moved the ball nicely but overcooked his cross into a packed box near the end. AP Photo

SUB Ansu Fati (Coutinho, 64’) - 6, Tried to make things happen but sent a free kick well over the crossbar and his weak shot was easy for Oblak to save. Getty Images

SUB Luuk de Jong (Gavi, 75’) – N/R, Couldn’t really make much of an impact on the game or cause any real bother for the Atleti defence. Reuters

SUB Riqui Puig (Migueza, 76’) – N/R, Got some nice touches in and passed the ball well but couldn’t make anything happen. Getty Images

SUB Clement Lenglet (Dest, 86’) – N/R, Didn’t have too much to do, as the game was out of reach long before his introduction. Getty Images

Former Barcelona striker Luis Suarez heaped more misery on his old club as Atletico Madrid claimed a 2-0 La Liga victory over the Catalans at the Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday.

First-half strikes from Thomas Lemar and Suarez were enough for the champions to secure all three points and heap pressure on the visitors' beleaguered boss Ronald Koeman.

Barca have won just one game in their last six in all competitions as their early season struggles show no signs of easing.

Victory moved Atletico level with table toppers Real Madrid, who travel to Barca's city rivals Espanyol on Sunday, on 17 points from eight games.

Barcelona, meanwhile, sit ninth with 12 points having played a game fewer.
