Empoli pushed from the start to get this victory over Bologna and maintain the four-point gap from Crotone.
The Tuscans knew this was a must-win game, as Crotone are surging forward and keeping the race for safety alive to the end.
Daniele Croce opened the scoring from close range before a wonderful Simone Verdi solo effort to draw Bologna level.
However, the difference in motivation was evident, as Manuel Pasqual’s absolute scorcher and an Andrea Costa strike secured victory.
