Atletico Madrid striker Alvaro Morata has been heavily criticized by the media and the fans especially during his time in London with Chelsea, due to his struggle with finding the back of the net with continuity. However, the Spaniard seems to be on the right path to find his goalscoring form back, as proved by the brace scored against Malta with his national team.
After the game, the former Blues player talked to the media about the criticism around him: "There are many people hoping that I don't score so that they can criticize me. I play for Spain and Atletico Madrid, I have many eyes on me and I draw a lot of criticism. People can say and write what they want. A few years ago that would have done my head in, but now I'm only focused on helping my team".
"I have to thank Luis Enrique, he believed in me at all times. - continued Morata - Against Malta we had to win for him, he deserves this result, we would die for him. The brace? I'm happy, these are the first two goals since my children were born".
