Antoine Griezmann after Juventus vs Atletico Madrid result: ‘I don’t know what just happened’

The Frenchman admitted his side had been played off the park after a Cristiano Ronaldo masterclass

Antoine Griezmann has admitted that Juventus were “superior on every level” after Atletico Madrid crashed out of the Champions League in Turin.

Cristiano Ronaldo fired a sensational hat-trick as Juventus beat Atletico 3-0 to turn their tie on its head and reach the Champions League quarter-finals.

Late goals from from Jose Gimenez and Diego Godin had earned Atletico a 2-0 first-leg advantage, but Ronaldo headed Juve level with headers in either half and converted a late penalty to clinch a deserved 3-2 aggregate win.

And after the match Griezmann readily admitted that his side had been played off the park.

“We didn’t play the game we wanted to, it was a bad night and we made it easier for Juventus,” Griezmann told Sky Sport Italia.

“We are all disappointed, as we just didn’t play. I’m the first to say I didn’t do enough, our tempo was wrong and Juventus were superior on every level.

“Considering we won the first leg 2-0, we can’t say much. I don’t know what just happened, it reminded me a little of the Bayern Munich game, but that time we were able to make some adjustments.

“Tonight, Juve were superior on all levels.”

Ronaldo meanwhile described the victory as “a magical night” after hitting his eighth Champions League hat-trick, drawing level with Lionel Messi.
