Atletico Madrid's Fernando Torres 'very happy' with brace at Real Madrid

Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres has expressed his delight at scoring the first goals of his second spell at the club against local rivals Real Madrid.

The former Chelsea striker said that he was "very happy" with his brace in the Copa del Rey clash, which Atletico won 4-2 following a 2-2 draw in the second leg.

"I'm very happy. It was a game in which we had to feel comfortable because of the result of the first leg," Torres told reporters.

"The goal, which came so early, made us play the game that we wanted. At no point did we fear jeopardising the tie and to do that, in the Bernabeu, is good.

"To play at the Bernabeu is complicated. I am very happy to score my first two goals in a stadium where I had never scored before."

Atletico are now five games unbeaten against Real since losing last season's Champions League final to their bitter rivals.
