Alvaro Morata has officially become Real Madrid's lifeline this season and his scoring prowess stacks up with the best of them.
He proved that again on Sunday night when he came off the bench to head in a crucial winning goal in a 3-2 comeback win over Villarreal.
Statistically, he is LaLiga's most formidable striker after Lionel Messi and now has seven goals in his last eight league games.
The only player who has a better record is the Argentine, with eight goals in as many matches.
In addition, Messi is the only player in the league with a better average goal record per minutes played. The Barcelona forward averages a goal every 86 minutes, which is the only record better than Morata's, with the former Juventus man scoring every 92 minutes.
Also equalling his scoring record with Juventus last season in half the playing time, the Spaniard has notched 12 goals in just 1,200 minutes, compared to the 2,300 minutes it took last year.
