AC Milan 0-1 Juventus (AET): Morata steers Juve to historic Coppa win

It required extra time, but Alvaro Morata steered Juventus to a historic Coppa Italia victory over AC Milan at Stadio Olimpico.

Alvaro Morata scored a dramatic extra-time winner as Juventus made history with a 1-0 victory over AC Milan in Saturday's Coppa Italia final.

There was no splitting the sides during regulation time at Stadio Olimpico, but substitute Morata broke Milan hearts in the 110th minute with the crucial strike.

Victory means Juve enters 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 90 minutes with Giacomo Bonaventura and Andrea Poli missing their best opportunities.
