The uploaded one Athletic Bilbao made it difficult for Atlético Madrid, however beat the Basques 1-0 at home and escaped to +4 from 5th, Betis.
The first half was fairly split, with both teams creating some notable chances in front of both goals but unable to find the back of the net.
This is how the second part went as well, until o Griezmann he untied the… Gordian bond and put “rochiblancos” in front of them.
It was in the 73rd minute when the Frenchman got possession of the ball just ahead of the cross and moved nicely into the opposition area, scoring with a nice curling shot.
Despite the Basques’ best efforts, they could not avoid defeat, as a result of which they remain in 7th place in the La Liga standings.
