'Morata, where are my shades?'
By Football Italia staff
The Inter fan who threw his sunglasses at Alvaro Morata admits he was annoyed to see the Juventus striker wearing them.
Morata scored the winner in a 2-1 Derby d’Italia at San Siro last Saturday evening.
He celebrated by picking up a pair of sunglasses thrown in his direction from the stands and posing with them.
“For a huge Inter fan like me, it really wasn’t fun to see a Juve player put them on,” 27-year-old Simone told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“I was very angry at conceding the goal, as it completed the comeback and was basically a fluke from Samir Handanovic’s mistake.
“Morata came to celebrate underneath the Curva where I was. I had my sunglasses in my hand, was agitated at the situation and they flew out of my hand.
“When I saw Bonucci pick them up and hand them to his team-mate, I tried to call out to them, but they didn’t hear me.
“After the celebration Morata threw them to the side of the pitch and who knows where they ended up. I haven’t seen them again. Fortunately, I only paid €2 for them at a market stall…
“It was an accident and I certainly didn’t intentionally throw them.”
