Atletico Madrid midfielder Riquelme delighted with goal; hails teammate Morata

Atletico Madrid midfielder Rodrigo Riquelme was delighted scoring in victory over Alaves.

Riquelme was on the scoresheet and named man of the match for the win.

He later said: "I'm happy, I've always dreamed of this and I work in training to make things more complicated for the coach when it comes to deciding.

"The celebration means I love you in sign language, which I dedicate to my family. It's probably the happiest day since I returned, but I don't want to give it more importance because another game is on Friday.

"In my close circle I have always said that I wish everyone was lucky enough to have a person like (Alvaro) Morata around them because of how human he is and how good a person he is. He always treated me like one of them and the kids who went up thank him very much. He is a sensational person."
