Watch: Loftus-Cheek finally gives Milan the lead vs. Lecce after offside calls

After a ropey 60 minutes, AC Milan took the lead against Lecce through Ruben Loftus-Cheek, a much needed goal.

In a game where Milan needed to start quickly, they did not. Instead, the play was rather ropey for a lot of the game. It could have been so different, considering Matteo Gabbia and Santiago Gimenez had the ball in the back of the net. Both were disallowed, though.

Then, finally, the Rossoneri got their goal through Loftus-Cheek. A nice free-kick from Luka Modric found the Englishman near the penalty spot, and he flicked it home well. Talk about big goals.
