Alvaro Morata Did It For Juventus As They Claim The Domestic Double


Juventus claim the domestic double in Italy as they win Coppa Italia.
With AC Milan holding off Juventus threat till extra time,Alvaro Morata came off the bench in extra time to score the winning goal as Juventus
saw off AC Milan in a disappointing Coppa Italia final to secure a second consecutive domestic double.
There was no splitting the sides during
regulation time at the Stadio Olimpico but substitute Morata broke Milan hearts in the 110th minute with the crucial strike.
Victory means Juve enter the record books as the first team to complete a Serie A and Coppa Italia double in back-to-back seasons. It could so easily have been a different story for a Milan side that created the better chances during the initial 90 minutes, with Giacomo Bonaventura and Andrea Poli
missing their best opportunities.
Their profligacy was punished when Morata swept home Juan Cuadrado's cross deep into extra time within two minutes of being brought on to secure another major honour for ex-Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri.
Milan, who had late penalty appeals turned down, now miss out on European football for
a third consecutive season, with Sassuolo qualifying for the Europa League. Head coach Cristian Brocchi - who replaced Sinisa Mihajlovic in April - will now wait to learn his fate amid rumours of a takeover by a Chinese consortium.
