MADRID, 1 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Atlético de Madrid’s French striker, Antoine Griezmann, made no excuses after Tuesday’s defeat against Portuguese Porto that also left them out of the Europa League and demanded “squeeze your ass, work and shut your mouth.”
“We don’t deserve to go to the knockout stages of the Champions League or the Europa League, that’s the way it is. If you can only win one game in the group stage, that’s what you have to do, now you have to push your ass, work, shut your mouth and fight” , expressed Griezmann at the microphone of ‘Movistar+’.
The one from Macon showed his support for Diego Pablo Simeone. “We are under his orders to work, it is a pride for us to work for him and play for this club, but we have to show it on the field,” he warned. “We have nothing to say to the fans, just thanks for his work at home and abroad to listen to them, they don’t deserve this,” added the international.
“We are an uncomfortable team if we believe it and we are all going in the same direction, that is Atlético. In the end we are here because we want to play in the Champions League and be part of this club and now we have to fight and work or, if not, leave “, he sentenced.
