Watch as Spezia take a surprise lead against Empoli and are pegged back at the Stadio Picco in a game decided by two special own goals.

Kelvin Amian performed a desperate goal-line clearance to deny Federico Di Francesco, but there was little Riccardo Marchizza could do when an Arkadiusz Reca cross took a double deflection into his own net.

Curiously, Marchizza was an ex-Spezia player and it was former Empoli defender Dimitrios Nikolaou who returned the favour by redirecting a Szymon Zurkowski cross.

Empoli were awarded a penalty, but this was revoked after a VAR review, as Andrea Pinamonti’s shot hit Amian on the ribcage.
