Morata Scores Twice as Juve Brush off Ferencvaros in Champions League

Alvaro Morata scored twice on Wednesday as Serie A champions Juventus claimed an easy win over Hungarian minnows Ferencvaros in Champions League Group G.

Andrea Pirlo’s side recovered from their defeat by group leaders Barcelona last time out and look well set to reach the knockout stages.

In his 100th game for Juve, Morata netted in the first half and curled in a delightful second on the hour mark. Paulo Dybala’s effort and Lasha Dvali’s own goal completed a comfortable win.

Franck Boli netted a late consolation for the hosts but with four goals, Morata is the joint top scorer in this season’s competition alongside Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford and Liverpool forward Diogo Jota.

In the group’s other game, Barca maintained their 100% winning record by edging a 2-1 win over Dynamo Kyiv.
