WATCH: Real Madrid players worry as fans chant 'Rat! Rat!' at Atletico ace Morata

Atletico Madrid striker Alvaro Morata was the subject of taunting songs from his former Real Madrid fans on Saturday night.

Morata started the game, though was eventually forced off due to injury as Real won 1-0.

As captured by the cameras of El Día Después, Morata was taunted by three songs from the home support.

When he was substituted, fans sung: "Oh Morata, ay Morata, we never wanted to see you, you were always a substitute, in the Wanda get lost!"

Before that moment, when he was replaced by injury, Morata could hear from the stands "How bad you are, Morata how bad you are!" and "He's a rat, Morata is a rat!"

In reaction, Morata posted to social media after the derby: "Proud to belong to this club! Proud to be an Indio! Today as always and more than ever! Forza Atleti!"
