Radamel Falcao has reiterated that he is "enjoying" playing for Atletico Madrid.

The Colombia striker scored five goals in his side's 6-0 victory over Deportivo La Coruna at home in La Liga on Sunday.

"I scored five in a game when I was little in Bogota," he told Atletico's official website. "And I got four playing for Porto against Villarreal but never five as a professional.

"I was very excited when I came to Atletico Madrid. It was a personal challenge to play in this great league with such a lot of good players.

"I am enjoying it. I have a great squad around me who are supporting me and helping me a great deal to develop as a professional."

Falcao became the first player in La Liga since Fernando Morientes in 2002 to score five goals in a single match.
