Antoine Griezmann orchestrated Atlético Madrid’s 1‑0 victory over Girona at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano, delivering the decisive assist to Ademola Lookman in the 21st minute. The win came as Griezmann bowed out on his 500th appearance for the club, earning a guard of honour from a 64,396‑strong home crowd.

Jan Oblak kept Girona at bay with a series of sharp saves, notably denying Claudio Echeverri late on. Girona pressed early, Bryan Gil rattling the post twice and Álex Baena testing the keeper, but Atlético’s defence held firm. The three points moved Atlético Madrid level with Villarreal, setting up a season‑ending clash that decides the league’s third place.

Lookman’s finish arrived after Griezmann exploited space on the left, curling a low cross that the forward tapped home. Girona responded with chances from Viktor Tsygankov and David Hancko, yet both goalkeepers remained untroubled. The triumph caps Griezmann’s emotional farewell and secures Atlético’s position heading into the final match.

Fans lingered after the ceremony, replaying Griezmann’s decade‑long contributions as the club eyes a European spot. With one game left, a draw against Villarreal would lock third, while a loss could drop them to fourth. Regardless, the season ends on a high note, cementing Griezmann’s legacy at the Metropolitano.
