Atlético de Madrid played a crucial derby at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid, where Antoine Griezmann reached a milestone in his career: his 300th La Liga game with Atlético de Madrid. Although he couldn’t celebrate a win or a goal, his legend as an Atlético player continues to grow.
Of those 300 games, 270 were as a starter, which is a remarkable achievement. He has scored 136 goals and provided 62 assists, making him the ninth player to reach that figure in the history of the rojiblanco team in the competition.
Additionally, he has a 62% win rate, 21% draw rate, and only 17% loss rate. With a total of 554 La Liga games and 727 games in his career, Griezmann is an undisputed figure in the history of the club.
At 33 years old, he still has two seasons left on his contract with the club, and it remains to be seen if he will fulfill his contract or anticipate a move to the Major League Soccer. In the game against Real Madrid, Griezmann couldn’t add to his goal tally, but demonstrated his skill on the field with 49 ball touches and an 87.8% passing accuracy. The club will respect his decision, as he has earned it as a legend of the entity.
