CorSport: A two-month drought to end – Morata hopes to return with a bang | OneFootball

The game against Empoli this evening is the final one in the month of November, and Alvaro Morata remains stuck on two league goals.

As highlighted in today’s edition of Il Corriere dello Sport (via MilanPress), Morata has only one mission: to get on the scoresheet in a Serie A game again after more than two months without a goal.

The Spaniard scored his only two goals in Serie A with Milan at San Siro, where tonight he will be back in the starting line-up after serving a suspension on Tuesday against Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League.

The last goal that he scored in the league was against Lecce at the end of September, and, as if on purpose, ten years have passed since Morata’s only goal against Empoli when he was in his first spell at Juventus.

Now Fonseca expects him to make the difference, even as a way of making it up to the team given that he was unable to play in Europe in midweek because he had racked up too many cards.

Fonseca will have to prepare for the delicate away game in Bergamo against Atalanta just three days after the Coppa Italia match against Sassuolo. Having Tammy Abraham certainly helps, but the idea would be to have Morata fit and firing again.
