'If I worried about myself, I'd play tennis' - Morata focused on Atletico's form after Alaves draw

Alvaro Morata insists he is not focusing on his own goalscoring form after Atletico Madrid were held to a 1-1 draw by Deportivo Alaves, stating he would just play tennis if individual exploits were important to him.

Atletico produced another underwhelming performance at Mendizorroza on Tuesday but looked to have escaped with all three points when Morata struck 20 minutes from time.

Lucas Perez then scored in style late on with a curling effort, denying Atletico the chance to go top of La Liga for a few hours.
