The video below in which Morata answers questions from the press about his European Championship performance proves that criticism can sometimes go too far.

“I understand that people criticize me if I don’t score. But I wish people would put themselves in my shoes and realize what it feels like when your family is threatened. That they send messages that your children are going to die.”

“It’s only when something really serious happens that people start to see you as a good boy.”

“Those threats happen very often. Every time I get into my room, I put my phone away.”

“I didn’t sleep after the match against Poland (1-1). Because of the adrenaline? Because of the missed penalty? Don’t get me wrong: I’m a very happy person, but I also think it sucks if I don’t do my job well. do.”
