Barcelona striker Griezmann fires message to coach Koeman after France goal

Barcelona striker Antoine Griezmann fired a message to coach Ronald Koeman after impressing for France last night.

Griezmann hit a superb goal in their Nations League qualifying win over Croatia.

He said afterwards, "It was a difficult game, very difficult to play, nor very good to develop our game. The playing field was slow, difficult, against an opponent who really wanted to beat us. We have known how to suffer and the most important thing was victory.

“I think it was a very nice goal. The ball came to me and I tried to hit it well and scored. I feel good about the goal.

"The coach knows where to put me so I took advantage of this advantageous situation and the confidence of the coach and my teammates."
