Atletico Madrid labored past Sagan Tosu 4-1 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in a preseason friendly for the Spanish side at Best Amenity Stadium on Saturday.

Diego Simeone's side, which finished third behind Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga last season, led through Koke, who scored direct from a corner in the 18th minute, but Tosu equalized eight minutes from time through an own goal.

"We played in tough conditions but the performance is something we can take heart from," Koke said. "We played with rhythm and had decent chances."
