BARCELONA, Spain -- Atletico Madrids record-setting 1-0 win over Real Madrid brought an emphatic end to its crosstown rivals 14-year unbeaten league run in their Spanish capital derby on Saturday. Custom Boston Bruins Jerseys . On-form Diego Costa struck in the 11th minute and not even Gareth Bale in his home debut for Madrid could help it rally. Atleticos big win came after Lionel Messi scored before being substituted due to injury to help Barcelona win 2-0 at Almeria. Barcelona and Atletico set club records by staying perfect through seven rounds to start the season, opening up a five-point gap over Madrid. Messi and Diego Costa have guided their teams to their milestones and lead the league with eight goals each. "We are having a great year and we have to keep it going," said Atleticos Jorge "Koke" Resurreccion, who set up Diego Costas goal. "Diego Costa is in a spectacular moment. He has helped us a lot." Bale, Madrids 100-million-euro man, went on at the start of the second half, finally playing in front of his new home fans after straining his left thigh while warming up before last weekends match. Yet neither the Wales winger in 45 minutes nor Cristiano Ronaldo in 90 were able to target Atleticos goal. "Atletico was more aggressive and ran more. It wasnt our day," said Ronaldo. "We have to understand that we need to improve. I played poorly and many of my teammates did so as well. Our coach had nothing to do with it. Its our fault." Atleticos last league win against Madrid had come in 1999, and since then it had gone 23 games without a victory. But Atleticos victory over Madrid in the same Santiago Bernabeu Stadium last May to claim the Copa del Rey had apparently given it the boost in confidence it needed to break its horrendous streak. While Atletico squeaked out that cup win in extra time, Diego Simeones side simply outplayed Madrid on Saturday, creating many more shots and deploying a swarming defence that kept Madrid in check until the final minutes. Simeone pumped both fists on the final whistle as he left the dugout, deservedly satisfied with his teams effort. "We can play better or worse, but our commitment to working hard is nonnegotiable," said Simeone. "The team is above everything else. The economic power of Barcelona and Madrid is superior to ours. We give it our all in each game." Diego Costa, who also scored in last seasons cup final, took the games sole goal when Filipe Luis stole the ball from Madrids Angel Di Maria and Koke placed a throughball for his goalscorer to coolly fire it in. As the Brazilian forward soaked up the dismay of Madrids supporters, Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti turned away and slapped his leg in frustration. "We are not playing well. We have to solve this by having a better attitude, staying concentrated, and playing with more speed and pace," said Ancelotti. "Its true that five points behind Barcelona and Atletico isnt a little amount. But thats not the problem." Messi netted his goal in the 21st with a left-footed shot after combining with Pedro Rodriguez, but he asked to be replaced eight minutes later after hurting a muscle in his right leg. Adriano sealed the result for Barcelona in the 56th from a pass by Cesc Fabregas while Messi watched from the bench. Messis injury leaves him in doubt for Tuesdays Champions League match at Celtic, when Atletico plays at Porto. Madrid hosts Copenhagen on Wednesday. Barcelona said the Argentina forward would undergo more tests on Sunday. While Barcelona may be missing Messi for the trip to Glasgow, it should have Neymar well rested after the striker didnt play a minute at Juegos Mediterraneos Stadium. Barcelonas first-year coach Gerardo Martino has guided Barcelona to its best start in 82 leagues. Five other managers, including Pep Guardiola (2009-10) and predecessor Tito Vilanova (2012-13), had reached six wins. "I have only latched on to one of the records that these players have broken and continue to break," said Martino. "They have been doing so for years both individually and as a team. The fact that I formed a part of this one is circumstantial." Elsewhere, Jonas scored his third winning goal for Valencia this week to secure a 1-0 victory at home over Rayo Vallecano. Jonas netted the decisive goal in recent wins against Sevilla and Granada, and he stepped up once again to produce the 36th-minute winner after intercepting a poor pass by Rayos Saul Niguez. Real Sociedad, meanwhile, was held to 1-1 at home by Sevilla before its Champions League game at Leverkusen on Wednesday. Johnny Bucyk Jersey .

Luis Enrique signed the deal with club president Josep Bartomeu two days after it was announced by the club. That was two days after coach Gerardo Martino stepped down when Barcelona finished its first season without a major trophy in six years. http://www.bruinsstore.com/authentic-derek-sanderson-bruins-jersey/ . Forward Iker Muniain scored the winner in the 70th minute after Bilbaos incessant pressure recovered the ball and sparked a counterattack inside Barcelonas half. Neymar was once again tagged to pick up Messis goal-scoring duties, but when he wasnt frustrated by slippery footing Bilbaos defence got the better of him. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Royals clubhouse mood was sombre after a 6-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins. Eric Hosmer will be going on disabled list after an X-ray revealed a displaced fracture of the third finger of his right hand. "Very frustrating, bad timing," Hosmer said. "The good thing is I can still get back for that last month and make that last push. They said as quick as three weeks and long as six. Obviously, Im going to be shooting for the three to four weeks." Hosmer was hit by pitch from Jon Lester on July 20 and was held out of the lineup for six of the next seven games. He returned to the lineup Tuesday and aggravated it on a check swing in the fourth inning. Alcides Escobar hit a two-run triple and Yordano Ventura pitched seven effective innings as the Royals completed a 5-2 homestand. "It was a great pitch to hit, a fastball right down the middle," Escobar said. "I didnt want to miss it." Escobars triple highlighted a four-run seventh. The inning also included Jarrod Dysons run-scoring single. Dyson stole second and third and scored on catcher Eric Fryers throwing error. Ventura (8- limited the Twins to two runs, one earned, on five hits, while striking out seven. Danny Santana led off the game with a home run. Mike Moustakas committed two throwing errors in the third to gift the Twins with an unearned run. Caleb Thielbar (2-1) retired only one of three batters he faced for Minnesota. Twins right-hander Kevin Correia, who had yielded 11 runs on 17 hits and five walks in eight innings in losing his previous two starts, left after six innings, allowing two runs, one earned, on five hits. His 13 losses top the American League. "I was able to go out there get ahead of some guys," Correia said. "I was throwing strikes and able to mix stuff up late." Kurt Suzuki hit a pinch RBI-double in the eighth off Wade Davis, the first extra-base the Royals right-hander allowed in 46 innings and 44 appearancess. Boston Bruins Jerseys. "Ive never seen anything like it, never," Royals manager Ned Yost said. Greg Holland worked a flawless ninth for his 29th save in 31 opportunities. The Twins stranded 11 runners, leaving the bases loaded in the fourth and eighth and stranding two runners in two other innings. "Were leaving way too many runners on early in the game," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Were not coming up with a big hit and coming up with those extra runs that you need. They show up late." A ROYAL THIEF Dysons two steals brings hit total to a major league-leading nine in July. "Dyson created a run by himself," Yost said. TWINS MOVES The Twins signed Suzuki to a two-year $12 million contract with an option for 2017. They also traded outfielder Sam Fuld, who hit .274 in 53 games, to Oakland for left-hander Tommy Milone, who went 6-3 with a 3.55 ERA in 16 starts. Milone was optioned to Triple-A Rochester, but is expected to join the Minnesota rotation soon. The Twins also called up first baseman Kennys Vargas, who hit .281 with 17 home runs for Double-A New Britain. TRAINERS ROOM Twins: Second baseman Brian Dozier (jammed left thumb) was not in the lineup. He injured the thumb sliding into third base in the fourth inning Wednesday. Right-hander Ricky Nolasco (right elbow soreness) threw a bullpen session with no problem. He will begin a minor league rehab assignment next week. Royals: Left-hander Jason Vargas (appendectomy) will return to the rotation Saturday, starting at Oakland. It will be his first start since July 8. ON DECK Royals: Right-hander Jeremy Guthrie, who went 1-3 with a 10.07 ERA in four July starts, will start the series opener at Oakland. Guthrie allowed 22 runs on 34 hits, 10 walks and four hit batters in 19 2-3 innings in July. Twins: Left-hander Logan Darnell will make his second career start against the White Sox.
