Two-goal Barcelona ace Griezmann: We have title in our hands

Antoine Griezmann was delighted with his double in Barcelona's 2-1 defeat of Villarreal.

Knowing that they'll face Atletico at the Camp Nou on Matchday 35, Ronald Koeman's squad know they have the title in their reach.

"We all want to win LaLiga," Griezmann said.

"There are four teams that are fighting and trying to win all our games.

"It won't be easy, but we have the team to do it.

"[The title favourites] are always the ones who are top of the table.

"Atletico are having an incredible season and we're doing our best to be champions.

"We have it in our hands. We just have to win all our games."

Griezmann's double brings his tally for the week up to four goals in three games for Barcelona. Playing up front with Lionel Messi may be playing its part.

"I try to get in between the centre-backs, get into space, make space for my teammates..." Griezmann added.

"It's not my natural position, but it's an honour to be at Barcelona, with these teammates and doing my best, sometimes with goals and other times with assists."
