Sassuolo ended the extraordinary Empoli run and plunged the Tuscans right back in the relegation battle.
The Neroverdi had numerous absentees and little to genuinely play for, but broke through at the Stadio Castellani with Federico Peluso and a lucky ricochet.
Manuel Pucciarelli converted a penalty to equalise, but Alessandro Matri on a Domenico Berardi assist and Alfred Duncan’s strike from distance made the difference.
Empoli are now only four points clear of Crotone in the drop zone.
