After his great performance in the Champions League on Thursday evening with Atlético Madrid, Antoine Griezmann indirectly sent a message to Didier Deschamps.
In difficulty in the French team since Euro 2024 in Germany, where he lost his status as an undisputed starter,
Antoine
Griezmann still shines as much under the Atlético Madrid jersey. This was again the case on Thursday evening, during
Colchoneros’ victory against RB Leipzig (2-1)
in the Champions League.
Indeed, the Mâconnais was involved in both of Atlético’s goals, with a goal and an assist. Beyond that, the vice-captain of the Blues, who was logically elected man of the match, was very valuable in the game. A face that contrasts with the one he has shown in the French team recently.
Griezmann: “Here (at Atlético), I know what I have to do”
Speaking to Canal+ after the match, Antoine Griezmann gave the reasons for the difference in performance he can have in club and in selection. Between Atlético and the French team, it’s completely different, it’s not the same game system, he said. Afterwards, I feel good in both, but here (at Atlético) I know what I have to do.”
“I’m happy to get up every morning, to come here, to play for these teammates, to play for this club”added “Grizi”, well aware that his statements will not fail to provoke a reaction. Which does not mean that I am not happy in the selection”he then clarified. But there is no need to read between the lines to understand that there is something wrong with Didier Deschamps.
