AC Milan striker Stephan El Shaarawy has expressed his delight at ending his goal drought in last night's Champions League playoff against PSV Eindhoven.
The 20-year-old had not found the net since scoring the opening goal in a 1-1 draw against bitter rivals Inter Milan in February.
After securing a 1-1 draw in Eindhoven, El Shaarawy said that attention now switches to their Serie A opener against Hellas Verona on Saturday.
"It was my first goal in an official match since the derby and it's also my first header, so it's very satisfying," Football Italia quotes the Italian international as saying.
"This is an El Shaarawy who really wants to get going, to score and do well. Now we must focus on the game with Verona and then consider the second leg."
El Shaarawy scored 16 goals last season.
