Ademola Lookman’s 1-0 match winner for Atletico Madrid at home against Girona last night has ensured safety for his Super Eagles teammates Akor Adams and Chidera Ejuke whose Sevilla suffered a similar 1-0 defeat at home to Real Madrid. Vini Junior scored Real Madrid’s goal against Sevilla.
Lookman’s winner was his fourth La Liga goal in 11 appearances for Atlético since switching to their Metropolitano ground in January transfer window from Atalanta.
Departing Frenchman, Antoine Griezmann, gave Lookman the close-range low pass. The victory consolidated Atlético’s fourth place with same 69 points as third placed Villarreal with one match to the end of the season.
