Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone enjoyed the performance of Lionel Messi for their draw with Barcelona.

Both Messi and Antoine Griezmann played well for their respective teams, something that wasn't lost on Simeone.

"Messi? Extraordinary," he said.

"As many expected because he played a tremendous match.

"For me, it was also the best match that Griezmann has had at home because he had two chances, he defended, he held the ball...

"The stadium is wonderful and it was one more night of brilliant football."
