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."
