MADRID (Reuters) - Atletico Madrid's impressive 2-1 comeback win at Porto in Champions League Group G on Tuesday was another sign the in-form La Liga side may have what it takes to mount a genuine challenge for the European title this season.

Buoyed by a stunning 1-0 win at Real Madrid on Saturday, their first success against their bitter city rivals in La Liga this century, Atletico recovered from conceding a 16th-minute Jackson Martinez goal at the Dragao stadium to secure a ninth victory in 11 matches in all competitions this term.
