Antoine Griezmann was really having a good day this Sunday in Valencia. The Atlético de Madrid striker had already made a name for himself in the first half, helping Luis Suarez open the scoring at Mestalla. But the best was yet to come. While the premises had equalized a few minutes earlier on a goal against his own camp from Stefan Savic, the former Barcelona player put his own in the lead on the scoreboard. And with the manner.
The star of the France team made all his qualities speak to score Atlético’s second goal. First his abnegation in defensive work by scratching a ball in the feet of a player from Valencia near the midfield. Then his speed and his technique to break through in the axis and resist the return of local defenders. And finally the precision of his left foot to place a clear shot in the skylight. A real jewel signed Grizou. Even if it was not enough for the Colchoneros, joined on the wire by the VCF (3-3). –
