Bad luck for Atlético de Madrid

The defeat conceded on Saturday in Cádiz confirms the difficult period experienced by Atlético de Madrid, still deprived of Antoine Griezmann.

Antoine Griezmann’s supporters are convinced of this. Without the French striker, L‘Atlético de Madrid is not doing very well. And the facts speak a little for themselves after the defeat conceded on Saturday evening in Cádiz, the 18th in the ranking of the Spanish Championship (2-0) on behalf of the 28th day.

Dominated on the scoreboard by a double from Juanmi (24th, 64th), the Colchoneros could be seven points behind in the ranking over Girona, third, if the Catalans got the better of Osasuna in the evening. Diego Simeone’s team has one victory in its last five matches, in all competitions.

Griezmann hoped for against Inter

Antoine Griezmann has not played since his release for an ankle injury (78th minute) on February 20 on the Inter pitch during the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League (1-0 for the Milanese).

The 2018 world champion, best director in the history of Atlético de Madrid, returned to training this week. His participation for the 8th return of C1 against the Nerazzurri is not guaranteed.
