It's not one player or two - it's all the team. "But we know we still have a challenge ahead against a very good team". "We know we are strong at home and I am sure we can cause them problems".
Leicester defended really well and limited Atletico Madrid to shots from distance.
"Today was the day that the game was and we had to play it". But Griezmann appeared to be outside of the box when he was touched by Albrighton. "This time, multiply that by the possibility of a semi-final place in the Champions League".

Griezmann had already been decisive when he scored a late equalizer against Madrid in the teams' 1-1 draw in the Spanish league over the weekend at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. It has conceded only two goals in its last eight games.
