Alvaro Morata - Page 10 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Creates three chances in Empoli game Morata sent in one inaccurate cross, created three scoring chances, won two duels and had one successful take-on in 45 minutes in Saturday's 0-1 loss to Juventus.

Impact Morata came off the bench at half-time in this and tried to set up his teammates multiple times, but to no avail. He was not threatening on his lone attempt. He will likely have to shoulder a bigger role with Cristiano Ronaldo no longer in town. Juventus will face Napoli away in two weeks.

Hits post against Udinese Morata took three shots (zero on target), drew one foul, won three duels and had one clearance in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Udinese.

Impact Morata drew the start as Cristiano Ronaldo was initially benched. He co-led his team in shots and rattled the woodwork on a good-looking header. He tallied 11 goals and nine assists in 32 Serie A matches (23 starts) last season. Juventus will host Empoli Saturday.

Scores against Italy Morata took two shots (one on target), created one scoring chance, drew one foul and scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-5 loss on PKs to Italy, missing in the shoot-out.

Impact Morata was surprisingly excluded from the XI, but he had a big impact off the bench, as he equalized by wrong-footing Gianluigi Donnarumma in a one-on-one after a cut through the middle. However, he had a key mistake in the shoot-out as he got denied on the penultimate shot, setting up Jorginho's clincher. He has scored three times during the Euro, taking 17 shots and creating three chances in six matches.

Less effective in win Morata failed to take a shot in 54 minutes of Friday's win over Switzerland on penalties.

Impact Morata had taken at least three shots in every previous match of the Euros but was shut down by the best defensive team the Spanish have faced so far. With the games only going to get tougher, it's important that Morata puts this game behind him and gets back on track as he's still scored in two of his last four games.

Misses pen in win Morata missed a penalty from four shots taken (three on goal) during Wednesday's 5-0 win over Slovakia in Group E.

Impact Morata looked better in this game but he fell victim to the same penalty woes that have afflicted others throughout this tournament and now fell to him. The confidence that manager Luis Enrique has shown publicly for Morata should be enough to confirm his starting spot for the knockout rounds, and he takes enough shots to have upside even if he still struggles to score with consistency.
