The Madrid derby had particular interest for Chelsea fans because of the presence of two recently Blue players in the game.
For Real, Thibaut Courtois was nutmegged as Atleti equalised.
For Atleti, Alvaro Morata had a textbook Morata game. Goal ruled out for offside, yellow card for dissent, subbed off for targetman. Chelsea fans on Twitter didn’t fail to notice how eerily similar this was to some of his performances for us.

Clearly Morata just decided to leave his class behind when he went to Chelsea. What is this? #AtletiRealMadrid pic.twitter.com/d6hzOJQey2

Morata was sensational for Real Madrid today-fouled Carvajal, hid entire first half, shot the ball to London, Faked an offside goal, Celebrated it, got a hand ball in Madrid box, asked to be subbed early coz being starter is boring & out-did Benzema.

Another defeat, an offside goal and a yellow card for Morata. It’s not going great for him so far in Madrid. #cfc https://t.co/C5ba9eR959
