Diego Simeone was full of praise for his Atletico Madrid squad, especially Antoine Griezmann, after their 3-1 victory over Levante. The match saw Griezmann come off the bench to score two crucial goals, helping Atletico extend their winning streak to four games in LaLiga.
The game was evenly poised at halftime, with Manu Sanchez equalizing after Adrian de la Fuente’s own goal. However, Griezmann wasted no time making an impact, scoring just 28 seconds after entering the pitch. This marked the fastest goal by a substitute in LaLiga since 2015.
Simeone was thrilled with Griezmann’s attitude and the contribution of all his substitutes, as Atletico now find themselves level on points with Barcelona. The coach emphasized the importance of every player in the team, highlighting the strength of unity within the squad.
Looking ahead, Atletico will face Getafe after the international break before a crucial Champions League clash against Inter. The team’s togetherness and determination will be key as they aim for continued success on multiple fronts.
