Antoine Griezmann scored twice as Atlético Madrid overcame an early scare to crush Girona 3-1 in a top-of-the-table LaLiga clash on Saturday.
LaLiga top-scorer Artem Dovbyk netted his 17th goal of the season with a tap-in from a counter-attack to give the visitors the lead in the fourth minute but Atletico equalised with Griezmann from the penalty spot in the 34th minute.
