Thing is though if he didn't look at the  flight of the ball how would he know which direction to run in  ?

Surely he knows where the goal is ffs 

Morata is the luckiest footballer I have ever seen. Bang average, but always finds himself playing at the highest level.

and still goes to the floor as easy as ever.

Great header of the ball though, his biggest strength I think.

I put the game on not long ago and the first thing I saw was Morata falling over and looking like he wanted to cry. 
 

Mark Lawrenson on commentary, hopefully he’ll give us one of his famous Top Tens don’t you agree @Ballack & Blu? 

What a miss

Morata's finest

Morata still can’t hit a cows arse with a banjo

Spain totally dominant, Morata miss and then Sweden with first real attack almost score. 
All looks so familiar.

The MOTD team are perplexed why the game is still 0-0  

 

Like I said, how does he keep getting chances at the highest level? 

Anyone watching the game, how is Isak doing? Guess Sweden didn't manage to threat Spain a lot, but he's one of the strikers I'd like us to take a better look if Train Haaland departs to other lands. 

Classic Spain. 85percent of the ball. Tippy tappy nonsence with no cut through when it mattered. That's what they get for leaving Dave on the bench. They should have known the only time Morata scores is from Dave's crosses!

Well at least we got the Patrcik Shick's goal today, Germany-France tomorrow

Spain missed like 4-5 good chances but in all honesty Isak played well and he had a chance, it was cleared from the line and he could have had an assist as well.

Sweden had only 15% of play so didn’t have much chance to shine. He worked his socks off and was involved in anything good that Sweden offered.

I'll be honest, when I saw them use a defibrillator I thought he was dead. Thank God he was saved.

Looks like he did, and they brought him back.

God bless those people.

I watched it and the build up got me:

PEDRI! PEDRI!, the son of PEDRO.... i was thinking. 

The Tiki Taka against Sweden looked neat in the first, in the 2nd Sweden started to look more dangerous.

For the life of me with Morata why didn't they throw in crosses, like @goose says probably the best header of the ball in Europe.

No he comes off and Gerrard Moreno comes on and no crosses until injury time.

Spain should have won and will probably still qualify yet they have made it difficult for themselves to finish first in the group.

He reminded me a bit of Tammy in that he was difficult to knock off the ball and still managed to test the keeper.

Maybe it's just me but the Euros look totally pointless, it looks like another round of qualifiers really, no real host and the quality has been just meh... The sooner Mount and Kante can rest the better so either both England and France lose early or one of them wins so that Mount/Kante can get the Golden Ball.

Lawros favourite 'Pasta shapes' is a classic, No1 'alphabeti spaghetti,........straight from the tin'........🤣😂😅

Such a deja vu watching Spain last night! U shape with a lot of lateral passes to try to penetrate the bus Sweden parked, most of the possession and a few good chances missed (Morata missing a couple of seaters)... Does that sound familiar?

Isak looked very pacy and good. He was the only one that carried danger for the Swedes.

Really so bad? There were already some exciting games, players are uo for it.

I mean i support Austria which are not that often in a big Tournaments so i guess this makes everything a bit more exciting.

I was thinking the same Gol. The lack of a single host just seems to take a bit of the atmosphere out of it. It seems to be a continuation of this Nation's League Concept. Not an experiment that should be repeated in my view.
