Goals in either half from Koke and Gabi and a first Liga strike for Jackson Martinez ensured Atletico Madrid left Sevilla with an impressive 3-0 win on Sunday.
Sevilla lost just once at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan last season, but they failed to replicate that form in their first home match of 2015-16 as Koke had Atletico ahead at the break after Unai Emery's side wasted a host of chances.
The hosts also controlled proceedings after half-time, but debutant Fernando Llorente missed a gilt-edged chance to level the scores and Atletico punished them late on.
Diego Simeone's men were rewarded for their efforts when Gabi's long-range strike deflected in off the back of Grzegorz Krychowiak.
But there was no luck about the third as Jackson curled home a stunning first goal in Atletico colours, capping a fixture in which the visitors' goalscorers paid tribute to departing midfielder Raul Garcia – on the brink of a move to Athletic Bilbao.
