Atletico Madrid made their entrance in 2020/21 La Liga season on Sunday with a convincing win over Granada with Thomas Partey as a second-half substitute.

Partey entered the pitch at the 71st minute as he replaced Belgian midfielder Yannick Carrasco. The Ghanaian midfielder was shown the yellow card three minutes later after a tackle on Granada’s Machi.

Atletico Madrid eventually won 6-1 with a brace of Luis Suarez. And Partey appreciated the spectacle performed by his team-mates.
