Atletico Madrid drew first blood in their annual season-long tussle with city rivals Real on Wednesday evening, claiming the UEFA Super Cup with a 4-2 win out in Tallinn, Estonia.
Despite taking the lead in the very first minute, Atletico were still forced to come from behind, battle back to parity and ultimately wrap things up a couple of spectacular goals in extra time.
It didn't take long after the match for Antoine Griezmann to start rubbing it in, as the World Cup-winning France international shared an image (originally published by Bleacher Report) on his Instagram story showing Real captain Sergio Ramos anointing him the new king of Madrid/Europe.
Griezmann didn't manage to get on the score sheet and was honestly rather anonymous throughout the match -- but that didn't stop the forward from gleefully seizing the opportunity to goad his nemesis.
However, it should perhaps be pointed out that Griezmann still has but one Europa League title to his name while Ramos has no less than four Champions League winner's medals draped around his neck.
That crown is going nowhere, at least not yet.
