Atletico Mardid fans blame morata for weekend lose, their first in 19 matches
Fans have blamed the Alvaro Morata effect after Atletico Madrid suffered their first defeat in 19 LA liga matches.
The Chelsea forward returned to his boyhood club on an 18 month loan deal in the transfer window last month.
Despite a promising start to his career in the premier league Morata has had a disappointing year with the London club, falling out of favour under manager Maurizio Sarii
On Sunday he made his debut for his new side but real betis dented Atletico's title hopes with 1 - 0 wins
Supporters took to Twitter to explain that the defeat was down to the Morata effect
One user wrote "coincidence? I think not"
While another wrote on social media platform, Morata been carrying around his bad luck everywhere. Poor Atletico will supper now #morataeffect. Lol"
The Chelsea loaned was brought down by Zouhair Freddal but the referee did not point to the spot and opted not to use VAR
