The striker, author of a double today, had only achieved one goal against his former team as a rojiblanco
In his entire career he has already scored five goals against Madrid, his second favorite victim
Álvaro Morata experienced a night of redemption today at the Metropolitano. As an Atlético player, Madrid was a team that he had crossed. Only one goal so far (in the Cup last season) to which we must add today’s double.
The first, at the start of the game with a great header. And the second when barely 30 seconds of the second half had been played. A goal that was a carbon copy of the 1-0. Center from Saúl and header at Morata’s pleasure, under the watchful eye of Camavinga. In the first goal, the Madrid defender who appeared in the photo was Alaba.
For Morata there are five goals he has already scored in LaLigawhich makes him tied for top scorer with Bellingham (5) and Lewandowski (5).
Even though Morata came into the game with poor scoring numbers against Madrid as a colchonero, His overall numbers (he also played for teams like Juve and Chelsea) against his former team are good. In total five goals, figures that make Madrid their second favorite victim. The first is Sevilla, against whom he has scored six.
