Watch as Empoli ruined Walter Mazzarri’s home debut on the Cagliari bench with Federico Di Francesco and a Leo Stulac screamer, while Liam Henderson almost scored the goal of the season.
The Tuscans have had an odd campaign so far, winning both away games at Juventus and Cagliari, but losing easier fixtures on home turf.
Di Francesco got his first goal in the Empoli jersey, meeting a Lukas Haas assist with the aid of a Luca Ceppitelli deflection.
Keita Balde Diao was unlucky to hit the woodwork and Alessio Cragno made a sensational save, but could do nothing on the Stulac rocket into the top corner.
Henderson spotted Cragno off his line and attempted a lob from midfield that bounced off the top of the crossbar.
