Griezmann defends referees and stands up for Tchouameni
Antoine Griezmann, forward for Atlético de Madrid, has shown his support for referees during a time of high tension in La Liga EA Sports. In a recent interview, Griezmann criticized the constant criticism of referees and asked that they be allowed to work without additional pressure.
‘We need to leave referees alone, they already have enough dealing with us on the field,’ he stated. Additionally, the Frenchman defended his former teammate on the French national team, Aurélien Tchouameni, who has received harsh criticism for his adaptation to Real Madrid.
Griezmann believes Tchouameni is being judged too harshly and highlighted his qualities as both a player and a person. Both will face each other in the upcoming Madrid derby at the Santiago Bernabéu, a match that promises to be intense and exciting.
