Lookman Scores Winner as Atlético Madrid Defeats Girona
Ademola Lookman scored the match-winning goal for Atlético Madrid in a 1-0 victory against Girona on the night of Griezmann's final home game at the Metropolitano Stadium. Lookman's goal, his fourth in 11 appearances for Atlético since joining in the January transfer window from Atalanta, was assisted by Antoine Griezmann with a close-range low pass.
This victory helped consolidate Atlético's position in fourth place in La Liga with 69 points, ahead of Villarreal. Griezmann received a warm ovation from the home crowd as he played his last match for Atlético before moving to Orlando City SC in the summer.
The win also ensured Atlético's safety in the league, while Oviedo confirmed relegation. Sevilla, on the other hand, suffered a 1-0 defeat at home to Real Madrid, with Vinícius Júnior scoring the only goal of that match.
