That was Griezmann's 28th goal of the season. It was a real gift too. Marseille will be disappointed after dominating the opening 20 minutes.

GOAL! Griezmann swoops in and clinically fires the ball home after Anguissa's error 30 yards from goal allowed the Spanish side to pounce.

The ball falls kindly for Payet 25 yards out, but his attempt lacks power and is scooped up by Oblak.

Koke is in the action again, but his acrobatic volley flashes way over.

Koke floats it in but it's easily cleared.

A free kick is awarded to Atletico on the right. Looked like a fair challenge. Marseille feel hard done by, but will hope they don't pay the ultimate price...

Sarr takes aim but shoots just wide from 25 yards.

Costa charges into Rami as the defender looked to head clear. It was a needlessly late challenge and Marseille's players aren't happy. The referee calls the forward over and gives him a strong warning - but no card.

Will it be third time lucky for Marseille? Les Olympiens lost in their previous appearances in the finals of 1999 and 2004 - but they've made a bright start here.
6'
Another opening for the French side. A set piece is only half cleared and drops for Adil Rami, who flashes just off target from the edge of the area.

One of Europe's strongest rearguards was cut wide open then. Germain should have scored.

HUGE CHANCE! Marseille break at speed. Payet races towards the edge of the Atletico box and slips it through for Valère Germain, who contrives to lift his effort over the top.

HEAD-TO-HEAD: This is the third meeting between the two teams. They previously locked horns in the 2008-09 CL group stage with Atletico securing a 2-1 win at home before earning a 0-0 draw in Marseille.

Tonight's referee is Bjorn Kuipers of the Netherlands.

Marseille hoof the ball into the left-hand corner of the Atletico half from kick off. Seemed rather bizarre and more rugby than football.
