Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata revealed he says thank you to Cesar Azpilicueta after every game he scores from his assists.

The duo have combined a number of times this season to give Antonio Conte’s side the deserved push they need in several competitions, especially in the Premier League. Azpilicueta has assisted Morata six times in the England top flight, but it was in the FA Cup they combined again to give Conte’s side a win.

The seventh goal Chelsea have had this season, as a result of the combination between the to Spaniards came against Southampton in the FA Cup semi final.

Morata reveals he always says thank you to his teammate after games, believing his international teammate has understood how he plays his game since he arrived in the league last summer.

“I could have scored another goal at the last moment, I was a little bit unlucky but we are in the final and that’s the most important thing, we are happy.

“I always say thanks to Azpi because this year he knows where I want the ball and it’s great to have all of the assists from him.”
