Watch: Morata gives Milan the lead vs. Empoli in the San Siro fog

Alvaro Morata got his first Serie A goal since the end of September as he pounced on a loose ball inside the penalty area to put AC Milan in front against Empoli.

In the 19th minute, Milan got the goal that their pressure was beginning to suggest would come. Emerson squared to Leao inside the box whose shot was blocked into the path of Morata, who was waiting to sweep in at the near post from about 12 yards to end his two-month league goal drought.
