Diego Simeone hopes Atletico Madrid can bid farewell to Griezmann with a spectacular match.

Atletico Madrid defeated Osasuna 2-1 in a key match of the 36th round of the 2025/26 La Liga season, thanks to goals from Lookman and Selot. Manager Diego Simeone hopes his team will deliver a stellar performance in their next home game to bid farewell to Griezmann.

In the 13th minute of the first half, Griezmann's lobbed pass struck an opposing player's hand, resulting in a penalty. Lookman then converted the penalty, giving Atletico Madrid a 1-0 lead.

In the 71st minute of the second half, Llorente delivered a cross, and Selotte scored, giving Atletico Madrid a 2-0 lead over Osasuna. In the 79th minute, Llorente fouled an opposing player, receiving his second yellow card and being sent off.

In stoppage time of the second half, Raúl García assisted Quique Barja to score, helping Osasuna pull one back to 2-1. Ultimately, Atlético Madrid defeated Osasuna 2-1 at the Navarre Stadium.

With the addition of 3 points, Atletico Madrid are currently ranked 4th in the standings with 66 points.

Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone said, "The team always has goals worth striving for, such as achieving the highest possible ranking in the league. We played well against Celta Vigo last weekend, but not as efficiently as we did in this match, which allowed us to take the lead."

“Every time we come to this stadium, it’s a very tough game. There are so many crosses in the penalty area that many people think it’s a penalty, and some situations make the referee hesitate. But we control the game very well. As long as we can keep passing the ball around, we can create opportunities.”

In addition, Atletico Madrid will host Girona in the next round of the league, which will be the last time French star Antoine Griezmann plays at home as a Atletico Madrid player.

Diego Simeone said, "We took the victory we wanted, which will give us momentum for the game against Girona, which will be Griezmann's last game at our home stadium. I hope the fans can come to support him and give him everything he deserves because he has given so much for us."

"We've had a talent like Griezmann for many years. Hopefully, we can prepare well for this match, and with the support of the fans, we can deliver a fantastic game for Griezmann."
