Real Madrid stars show class handing match-ball to kid Alvaro Morata

Talk of rifts inside the Real Madrid locker room have been rubbished by young striker Alvaro Morata.

The teenage forward saw action as a second-half substitute in last night's 8-0 Copa victory over Levante.

And with Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo both claiming hat-tricks, Morata revealed the special touch his teammates made to him: "They gave me the match ball - and everyone had signed it!

"I am only a player of the Castilla. I still have a long way to go.

"But I am calm. I believe I will score goals at this level."
