With Barça and Real Madrid of Kylian Mbappé, it is necessary to count on Atlético d'Antoine Griezmann in the Liga title race. The formation of Diego Simeone remained on two zero results (during the derby in Bernabéu then against Celta) but had no mercy against Valence, winning 3-0 in Mestalla against the relegation first of Liga on Saturday evening , thanks to a large “grizi”. The Colchoneros are temporarily leaders.
Julian Alvarez carried the Madrilenians by scoring a double in the first period. The Argentinian world champion opened the scoring on a service by Giuliano Simeone (12th), then he doubled the head on a center perfectly dosed by “the inventor” Griezmann. Which leaves it to the Movistar diffuser to titrate:
“Atlético plays, Griezmann invents, Alvarez executes”. The former star player of the French team, author of 15 goals this season all competitions, has his 4th assist in the championship this weekend and gave three in the Champions League.
Griezmann Atlético against the 4th
Two “Cholo” replacements allowed Atlético to bring the scoring to 3-0: Conor Gallagher served Angel Correa at the end of the match (86th). Note that Robin Le Normand and Clement Lenglet were associated in central hinge and that Thomas Lemar was on the bench.
Atléti has two points ahead of Barça and Real, which respectively face Las Palmas (Saturday evening) and Girona (Sunday). The residents of the Riyad Air Metropolitano will receive Bilbao, the 4th in the ranking next week. Not an easy task, but for Griezmann and his teammates, you must obviously win all the matches to stay in the title race.
