Many people around the world must have sighed with relief after Alvaro Morata finally scored for Chelsea following a Willian flick.

The striker has endured a torrid year with a loss of form seeing him lose his place to Olivier Giroud and when he finally scored in the Europa League, he buried his head in Willian’s shoulder.

Fellow compatriot, Cesc Fabregas, backed him to score more goals.

“Alvaro will [remember this game] I’m sure, it was very important for him,” Fabregas said at Stamford Bridge. “You can feel he was trying to be a little bit nervous about the situation. He was stressing out a bit, so the goal will do him a lot of good.

“I think this happens to all the strikers, they want to score goals. That’s their nature. I’ve never felt it as it is not my game. But I feel for them when they don’t score goals, especially Alvaro [Morata] as I have a good relationship with him and I know that he suffers as he cares a lot.

“That’s very important he cares as he wants to do really well in football. Sometimes it happens and sometimes not, but I’m very happy for him. We believe in him, we believe in everyone. Definitely, it’s up to him to keep trying as he’s doing and behaving in the way he does.

“His attitude is spot on and he always tries his best. We are delighted and hopefully this is the first of many.”

The former Barcelona player also commented on Chelsea’s poor showing against the Hungarian side and hoped that the team would do better moving forward.

“We know this type of game. They can be tricky if you don’t score early,” he continued. “We tried but they defended very deep, very compact. As I said you find it hard to break them down. If you don’t do it quickly then what happened can happen.

“But at the end of the day we found our resources to score a goal. As I see the team tried, we put pressure up front and really tried our best. It was three points but probably no-one will remember this game again.”
