AC Milan keeping up the race to remain within the European zone by winning the Serie A Week 28 game against Empoli on Sunday 10 March 2024 at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. This is the second consecutive 1-0 in the league and the third victory in a row between Serie A and the Europa League for Milan, which thus rises to 59 points. Second consecutive 1-0 defeat, however, for Empoli, who remain on 25 points, one more than third-last Frosinone.

A goal from Christian Pulisic is enough for Milan to win these three golden points. The Rossoneri became dangerous after five minutes with the American, who turned and shot from inside the area, forcing Caprile to save. The goal that decides the match, however, arrives in the 40th minute, when Bennacer verticalizes for Okafor, who takes the goal and passes backwards for Pulisic, who kicks with his left foot and, thanks to a deviation from Luperto, finds the corner.  In the second half, the Rossoneri managed the game, making themselves visible only with shots from Loftus-Cheek and Chukwueze, both blocked by Caprile, while Empoli only came close to equalizing in the final stages, with a header hit the post by Destro, who was however stopped offside.

This is the 18th game in San Siro between Milan and Empoli, with a balance in the 17 previous matches of 11 victories for Milan, 3 draws and 3 successes for the Azzurri. First match in 1986, Italian Cup, ended 1-1 (Della Monica after Paolo Rossi); last last April, ending 0-0

AC Milan took the lead in the 40th minute. Captain America Christian Pulisic defeated Empoli goalkeeper with a left-footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Noah Okafor. The goal was given after a VAR review
