Diego Simeone’s team got three gold points. Antoine Griezmann put the tying goal for Atlético de Madrid vs. AC Milan in the group stage of the Champions League. The French forward managed to score again with the ‘Rojiblanca’ shirt and was happy about it in statements to Movistar.

Regarding the criticism, the ‘Little Prince’ pointed out that ”There is a part of reason, because I was not comfortable, I could not find myself and in the end, because of work, because of the confidence of my teammates, of the coach who continues to put me on, I can only improve. My teammates, the club, the fans are waiting for me. I’m here for that and I try to get to my best level as quickly as possible ”.

Despite the fact that he feels happy to wear the shirt of the rojiblanco club again, he considered that it was not so simple. ”It’s a lot of change. In the end, it was the last day (his signing for Atlético de Madrid), it is another tactic, another dressing room, another way of playing and of course it costs, because in the end there are many changes, everything different and you have to get used to the most fast as possible, because the coach and my teammates need me, but I think nights like this are going to help me improve “Griezmann said.

“The fans, the people, want to see me like this, like tonight. And it is the only thing I want, to give them happiness now, that they go home, to sleep happily. It is my only goal to come back here, to make them happy and bring very nice things ”, the ‘Little Prince’ continued.

Griezmann always grateful to Simeone

”A lot of respect and admiration for this coach, because he has improved me and has made me reach my best level. That is why I wanted to return, for him, for the club, for the fans, for my teammates. I am proud to be here ”, concluded the French attacker.
