Antoine Griezmann has not had the easiest time at Barcelona. Since joining the club from Atlético Madrid, he has struggled to get regular game time in his favoured position against a backdrop of boardroom chaos and financial ruin.

But the Frenchman is starting to find some form despite the ongoing chaos, with his latest goal one to savour, as he unleashed a fearsome volley from 30 yards against Osasuna.

Martin Braithwaite opened the scoring in the 29th minute, before Griezmann doubled their lead just before half time with a lethal strike.

You can watch it below, that is why you’re here after all. Look at the way he hits it, right on the sweet spot. Woof.

Philippe Coutinho and Lionel Messi went on to put the game beyond doubt in the second half, with Messi’s goal another screamer.

The Barcelona captain celebrated his goal by paying tribute to Diego Maradona, who passed away last Wednesday at the age of 60.

Messi removed his Barcelona jersey to unveil a Newell’s Old Boys t-shirt, the club where he played as a child and Maradona played five games in the autumn of his career.

Maradona’s death is now being investigated, as his doctor’s properties are searched by authorities.
