The Vicente-Calderon spectators were treated to a gala Antoine Griezmann this Saturday. In great shape, the French striker carried Atlético Madrid to a nice victory at home against Valladolid (3-0), in La Liga. The French striker, involved in the three achievements of his team, especially took the light by scoring the third goal, already one of the most beautiful of 2023.
While his team showed pretty things throughout the meeting, the Mâconnais, who still sports his fluorescent pink hair, was the conclusion of the most beautiful collective action of the meeting. A very vertical counter, which led to a shift for Nahuel Molina, a center at the near post, then, at the conclusion, an aesthetic recovery from Griezmann behind his supporting foot (2-0, 24th).
A heel for Morata
Before that, the French had already entertained the public on the opener of Alvaro Morata, for whom he had stored heel (1-0, 18th) after a magnificent deep pass from Koke. In the 28th, he again distinguished himself with a well-kicked free kick, which benefited Mario Hermoso (3-0, 28th). But the Spaniard had to try twice to score, which deprived Griezmann of another assist.
Thanks to the new XXL performance of its n°8, Atlético retains its 4th place in La Liga, with 31 points. The Colchoneros still remain seven points behind Real Sociedad, which occupies third place on the podium, a good distance from the Barça-Real duo.
