Antoine Griezmann becomes Atletico Madrid's all-time leading goalscorer with his 174th for the club

Antoine Grizemann has become Atletico Madrid's all-time leading goalscorer in a derby match against Real Madrid.La Liga's Madrid derby.

The French forward scored the milestone goal with a right-footed shot from outside the area in the 37th minute to even the match at 2-2.

The goal came during the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup to surpass Luis Aragonés as Atletico Madrid's all-time top scorer with 174 goals.

Aragonés reached his mark in 370 matches, while Griezmann needed 368 games with the club.

Griezmann went scoreless in three straight games since tying Aragonés with a pair of goals against Getafe in the Spanish league in December.

The France international is in his eighth season with Atletico. His first stint with the club was from 2014-19 before joining Barcelona for what were two mostly disappointing seasons.

He returned to Atletico in 2021 on a one-year loan that was extended into the 2022-23 season.

Atletico then reached an agreement with Barcelona to sign Griezmann in a move that allowed him to play more minutes with Diego Simeone's team.

The clubs had been in a contractual dispute that was limiting he 32-year-old forward's opportunities as Atletico reportedly would have had to pay Barcelona 40 million euros ($43.8 million) if his playing time surpassed a certain number of minutes.

Griezmann, who previously played for Real Sociedad, signed a contract with Atletico until June 2026.
