Haas unlocks, right post

The match was decided by a vehement start to the match by Empoli who went on the 9th minute one step away from the net with Satriano, but Di Gregorio was very good at closing the mirror, then Haas’s goal (11 ‘).

At 56 ‘Empoli close to doubling with Baldanzi after an excellent personal action: Donati’s rejection on the goal line was decisive. Until the end of questioning and response between the two teams.
