It is up to Real Madrid to get the city of Madrid a double.
Atletico Madrid wins their second Europa League title under Diego Simeone’s management.
After Manchester United broke the streak of La Liga teams winning the Europa League, Atletico Madrid reinstated the Spanish dominance in European club competitions after beating Marseille on French soil to win their 3rd UEFA Europa League title.
Antoine Griezmann scored a goal in each half to guide Atletico Madrid to what ended up being a comfortable final for the team.
