Atlético fans salute Antoine Griezmann after final European match following Arsenal defeat | OneFootball

Antoine Griezmann was saluted by Atlético de Madrid supporters after his final European appearance for the club, a 0-1 Champions League semi-final second-leg loss to Arsenal on Tuesday.

The Spaniards were eliminated after a 1-1 draw in the first leg. L'Équipe reports that the French forward received a sustained ovation at full time.

Team-mates stepped aside so he could stand alone before the Atlético section, where fans chanted his name and applauded at length. He clapped them back, his expression unchanging, the former Real Sociedad player then departing.

He will move to the United States to join Orlando City at the end of the season.

As a result of this defeat, Griezmann will never win the Champions League.
