Atletico Madrid coach Simeone frustrated with Griezmann for Sevilla draw

Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone was frustrated with Antoine Griezmann's wayward finishing for their 1-1 draw with Sevilla.

Both goalkeepers were put to the test on Sunday afternoon, but the Argentine felt that it was his main man up front who could have sealed all three points for the away side.

"With a bit more accuracy from [Antoine] Griezmann, we could have nicked the victory," Simeone told the press.

Nonetheless, he was nothing but praiseworthy for his high-flying opponents.

"But they also could have won it if it wasn't for [Jan] Oblak, it was a tense game...against a rival who a top side," said the Atletico boss.

"In the form that Sevilla are in, with their mobility and variation in their play, we did well get back in to the game."
