Only last weekend Le Garçon scored a hat-trick when Atlético Madrid visited Sevilla at the Sáncez Pizjuán.

In that game, Griezmann scored three goals and provided a wonderful back heel assist for Koke Resurrección.

Barely three days later, Griezmann scored another hat-trick. 

And more. He scored another goal to complete a fabulous poker.

After a wonderful through ball by Koke, Griezmann found himself one on one with the keeper and beat him mercilessly.

Next, the Frenchman scored this fantastic free kick goal right in the top corner. Nothing to do for the goalkeeper!

In the second half, Filipe Luis sent a marvelous cross in from the left. Inside the box of course was Griezmann who, with a delightful header, sent the ball to the back of the net.

Griezmann scored his fourth goal of the night after a cross by Diego Costa, who had previously managed to make a defender lose track of him.

Last player to have scored a poker for Atletico Madrid was Diego Forlan back in 2012.

Similarly, the last player to score a hat-trick in two consecutive games was Diego Costa.

Atlético Madrid is showing unquestionably good form.

They are currently second in La Liga with 61 points, trailing four points after Barcelona, which also has one match pending.

If Diego Simeone's pupils keep it up, they might actually make the title race interesting.
