Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann: Suspended for La Liga opener

Griezmann will be suspended for Sunday's season opener against Alaves, Marca reports.

Analysis:

Griezmann was shown his fifth caution of the season in the final La Liga match of 2015/16, meaning he will be forced to sit out Sunday as the next available league match. The striker was expected to be rested for the match anyway, as he received an extended break following a run to the Euro 2016 final with France, so he should be available to make his debut next Saturday versus Leganes.
