Griezmann equalised with a brace in just 15 minutes

Liverpool were at their most impressive and serious form at the Wanda Metropolitano. After a two-goal opening quarter of an hour, Jürgen Klopp's side put Atletico Madrid on the back foot. Cholo Simeone called for calm and composure from his players, who went for the first.

That goal came sooner than expected, as just seven minutes after Naby Keita's strike, Antoine Griezmann made it 1-2 to the delight of the fans in the stadium. Thomas Lemar had made a great run down the left flank in the 20th minute.

The French striker easily got past Alexander-Arnold and raced down the back line to put a dangerous back pass into the centre of the box. There, Koke appeared to shoot with his left foot over the goal defended by Alisson. However, the '8' put his foot in smartly and put the ball into the net.

After this, all the players went to get the ball quickly to try to equalise as soon as possible. The equaliser had the same protagonist and came in the 34th minute. The 'Little Prince' received the ball and thanks to an excellent control was left alone in front of the Brazilian goal. His low cross shot was impeccable and Atleti made it 2-2 before the break.
