Sorloth Shines: Surpasses Griezmann in the Scorers Table

2025-04-25 Marca

Atlético de Madrid is experiencing a sweet moment with the outstanding performance of Alexander Sorloth, who has surpassed Antoine Griezmann in the scorers table. The Norwegian striker, with 17 goals, has demonstrated his worth in the rojiblanco attack, exceeding the 16 goals of the French star.

Sorloth needed just three minutes to open the scoring in the crucial match against Rayo, showcasing his aerial ability and taking advantage of a great cross from Giuliano Simeone. This goal not only boosted the team’s victory but also consolidated his position as a key piece in the attack.

Sorloth’s effectiveness is remarkable, averaging one goal every 110 minutes in his first year at the club. These numbers even surpass his previous performance, which demonstrates his rapid adaptation and ability to make a difference.

In contrast, Griezmann, despite being the club’s all-time top scorer, is going through a scoring slump, needing 210 minutes to score a goal. This situation has led Cholo to bet on Sorloth as a starter in the last few games, accompanying Julián in the attack.

Griezmann’s benching, unthinkable until recently, reflects the confidence placed in the Norwegian striker. With his goalscoring instinct and his ability to seize opportunities, Sorloth has become a constant threat to rival defenses and a great hope for the fans at the Metropolitano.
