Griezmann gets noticed, but doesn't join the party

Atletico Madrid did not need Antoine Griezmann to largely dominate (5-0) Las Palmas during the 25th day of La Liga.

Antoine Griezmann, who arrived at the Wanda Metropolitano with a gigantic Kansas City Chiefs cap, winner of the last Superbowl, did not set foot on the Madrid pitch on Saturday during Atletico’s big victory (5-0) at home against Las Palmas.

Preserved for the clash against Inter Milan on Tuesday in the Champions League, the Frenchman saw Marcos Llorente (15th and 20th) and Angel Correa (47th and 62nd from the penalty spot) sign two doubles, before Memphis Depay closed the ball (87th).

Thanks to this victory, Diego Simeone’s players temporarily move back to 3rd place in La Liga, ahead of FC Barcelona, ​​and five lengths behind 2nd, Girona.
