Tchouameni destroyed because of Griezmann!

As beautiful as it is, the goal scored by Antoine Griezmann during the extra time of the clash between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid earned severe criticism from Aurélien Tchouameni.

Atletico Madrid and Antoine Griezmann have their revenge. Last week, the Colchoneros may have led twice against Real Madrid, but it was the Merengue who had the last word in extra time (5-3) during their semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup. But this time, while the two rivals met again in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey, extra time favored Diego Simeone’s men.

After leading twice, Atletico Madrid could fear seeing the scenario of eight days ago repeat itself, but the residents of the Wanda Metropolitano were able to count on Antoine Griezmann to swing the match in the right direction. And the man who had become the top scorer in the club’s history in Saudi Arabia did it in style. Taking advantage of a ball lost by Vinicius, the Mâconnais escaped down the right flank before heading towards goal, resisting the return of the Brazilian winger. And while he was along the goal line, the Frenchman managed, despite a completely closed angle, a curling shot with his left foot, which came around Lunin, the Real goalkeeper, to finish its race in the top corner opposite.

Antoine Griezmann could let his joy burst forth and be celebrated by his teammates. On the Real side, Vinicius and Aurélien Tchouameni could lower their heads. The Brazilian because of his loss of the ball and the Frenchman for his more than doubtful defensive withdrawal. The former Bordeaux player did not seem concerned in the action, remaining a good distance from the ball when he could have easily blocked the side. Unsurprisingly, he has also come under numerous and severe criticism on social networks.
