Fernando Torres has claimed that scoring in Atletico Madrid's final La Liga game of the season was "the best way possible" to finish the domestic season.

The in-form striker netted his team's opener against Celta Vigo on Saturday evening, before Antoine Griezmann scored a second as Atletico recorded a 2-0 victory at the Vicente Calderon.

Torres, who is in talks with Atletico over a permanent contract, has thanked the club's fans for their "unconditional support" as he looks ahead to the Champions League final against Real Madrid on May 28.

Atletico ended the 2015-16 La Liga season in third place, two points behind second-placed Real Madrid and three behind the champions Barcelona.
