Real Madrid vs Atletico: Sparks will fly between Ramos and Griezmann
Fireworks expected
Posted Saturday, September 29, 2018 by Marca.com
Sergio Ramos and Antoine Griezmann come face to face again at 8.45 CET in the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
Gone are months of sniping on social networks and in the press room.
In the derby, the ball will dictate what happens between two of the best players in the world.
It was an Instagram illustration that Ramos did that got right up the Frenchman's nose.
In it, Griezmann appeared on his knees before the Real Madrid captain and the Champions League trophy.
Griezmann remained silent until he won the European Super Cup, then immediately posted on his social networks a picture of Ramos putting a crown on him.
Ramos took note and answered in the press room of Valdebebas, taking advantage of a sentence by Griezmann in which he said he eats at the same table as Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
"His ignorance is very daring, when I hear this kid talk..." he said.
Before the game, they will greet each other and they'll even probably smile.
But during the 90 minutes of the game, only the win matters... so let's see who laughs last .
The classic face-to-face with Costa
The duel between Ramos and Griezmann has eclipsed the previous classic battles between Diego Costa and the captain of Real Madrid.
They always star together on the pitch, and in the last game between Madrid and Atletico, in the European Super Cup, the two directly faced each other on several occasions.
Ramos will also battle with Lucas, who a year ago broke his nose after being kicked in the face involuntarily.
