Antoine Griezmann: I copied the goal from Leo Messi
The forward also says he copied the celebration to go with it from LeBron James
Antoine Griezmann was on Sunday a happy man. On his official Camp Nou debut he hit two goals and set up another to give Barcelona a 5-2 win over Real Betis.
“After a defeat people talk, we worked hard this week and their goal woke us up,” said Griezmann about the game.
“We had a lot of drive after the Bilbao game and we put in a great performance in the end. There are a lot of things to improve but we have to continue n this path.”
On his second goal, he said: “I saw Leo (Messi) do that in training and I copied him.”
And about his celebration - throwing confetti in the air - he added: “I like the ritual that LeBron James does before the games and I tried to copy him. I hope I can keep copying him for many more games, that would be the best signal.”
