A 3-1 more complicated than expected and solved only in the crazy final minutes. The goals from Ballo-Toure in the 94th minute and Leao in the 97th minute secured the Rossoneri’s victory. Three goals in the last five minutes of extra time. A crazy night that allows Pioli to redeem himself after the knockout against Napoli. Empoli almost grabbed a draw, but Milan with the killer instict of the champions claimed the victory.

✅  Stats before the game. Among the 23 teams they have faced more than three times in home games in Serie A, Milan are the only ones against which Empoli have never won: in 14 previous draws and seven Rossoneri successes. After the 1-0 win against Bologna, Empoli could win two matches in a row in the league for the first time since December 2021, while the last time they entered two consecutive clean sheets in Serie A dates back to January 2017 ( three in that case). Milan have drawn three of the four away games this season between Serie A and Champions League (1W), as many as in the previous 20 away games in all competitions (14W, 3N, 3P).

👉 Lineup EMPOLI (4-3-1-2): Vicario; Stojanović, De Winter, Luperto, Parisi; Haas, Grassi, Henderson; Pjaca; Satriano, Lammers.

👉 Lineup AC MILAN (4-2-3-1): Tătăruşanu; Calabria, Kjær, Tomori, Ballo-Touré; Bennacer, Tonali; Saelemaekers, De Ketelaere, Leão; Giroud.
