Griezmann's Free Kick Seals Atletico Madrid Progress in ...
Griezmann’s free-kick ended Atlético’s two-game losing streak and secured their Copa del Rey quarterfinal spot with a 1-0 win over Deportivo La Coruña.
- On Tuesday, Antoine Griezmann scored a curling left-foot free-kick in the 61st minute, giving Atletico Madrid a 1-0 road win over Deportivo La Coruña and securing a Copa del Rey quarterfinal spot.
- Diego Simeone fielded a near full-strength side at the Riazor Stadium with only goalkeeper Jan Oblak rested, while midfielder Conor Gallagher and forward Giacomo Raspadori were absent.
- The match was briefly stopped near the 70th minute after Deportivo goalkeeper German Parreno sustained a mouth cut from a collision with Griezmann and had his lips sutured by team doctors, while Atletico created chances with Julian Alvarez and Matteo Ruggeri.
- Atletico maintained control for much of the second half and Diego Simeone's defensive organisation proved impenetrable for La Coruna, who have won just once in their last seven outings.
- Atletico Madrid sit in fourth place at the halfway point of the Spanish league season, while Real Madrid visit Albacete on Wednesday and Barcelona play at Racing Club Santander on Thursday.
