Marc Andre Ter Stegen: Atletico Madrid fought back from conceding an early goal to RB Leipzig to win their opening Champions League game of the season.

Antoine Griezmann was once again Atletico's star player, with the equalizing goal after 27 minutes and the assist for Jose Gimenez to win the game with a cross to the far post for the Uruguayan to score with a header.

Leipzig stunned Atletico in the opening minutes of the match with their direct and rapid football and their tall striker Benjamin Sesko put them ahead after just four minutes after Jan Oblak saved a shot from Lois Openda following a counter-attack that Sesko had started, reports Xinhua.
