Griezmann follows up disallowed golazo with stunning equaliser
ELOY ALONSO / Reuters
Antoine Griezmann recovered beautifully from the frustrations of a seemingly incorrect offside call when his 25-yard screamer found the bottom corner of goal shortly after.
Less than 10 minutes earlier, the Atletico Madrid forward scored an absolute beauty when he lobbed Athletic Bilbao 'keeper Gorka Iraizoz from an acute angle.
However, after appearing to have timed his run perfectly, the goal was called back.
He made up for the official's poor decision minutes later with a tremendous strike to make it 2-2 and help Atletico earn a point to remain in the top four of the table.
