And it's certainly a special one, too, with the former Real Sociedad and Barcelona star reaching his 500th appearance for the capital side in their home bout against Girona, during which he has provided 212 goals and 94 assists across all competitions for Colchoneros.

If becoming the third-most capped player in Atleti history behind Koke (739) and Jan Oblak (538), leave it to the 35-year-old midfield metronome to produce another moment of fine quality to push Atleti into a first-half lead over the visitors.

In assisting Ademola Lookman's opener in the 21st minute, Griezmann has now banked 90 assists in 563 La Liga appearances since his 2010/11 debut with Sociedad, a number outstripped by only Lionel Messi (155) and Karim Benzema (102)
