Griezmann has some options
Video footage shows Antoine Griezmann hurling x-rated insults at Inter Milan's Alexis Sanchez during Wednesday's penalty shootout win at Atletico Madrid.
Diego Simeone's side secured victory in the last 16 of the Champions League as goals from Antoine Griezmann and Memphis Depay canceled out Inter Milan's opening goal and sent the game into extra time.
In the 30 minutes of overtime, neither side could decide the winner, and the winner was finally decided by penalty kicks.
Atletico won the decider, beating Inter after Sanchez, David Klaassen and Lautaro Martinez missed a penalty from 12 yards out.
Footage has since shown Griezmann reacting to Sanchez's failure, reports say mobile star, turned to Rodrigo De Paul and said: He (Sanchez) is a ***, Chileans are ***! “
When Alexis Sanchez's penalty was saved, Griezmann told him “Es un cagón el chileno” (Chilean people shit).pic.twitter.com/b6tKOLC873

Griezmann golden boots?
The Frenchman's first-half strike in the Spanish side's victory moved him joint top of the Champions League scoring charts with six goals, alongside Kylian Mbappe, Harry Kane and Erling Haaland.
Goalkeeper Jan Oblak was the hero of the penalty shootout, saving two penalties, but said much of his success was down to luck.
“Ultimately, there's a bit of luck in penalty shootouts. Because you have to pick the right side and you have to stop. If the player kicks the ball perfectly, it's impossible to stop it,” he said.
“Fortunately, I was able to make the save. What's important is the victory and that we're in the quarter-finals.”
