The match between Lecce and Empoli ended 1-1, a match staged this evening at Via del Mare valid for the 12th matchday of Serie A. The second goal for the Tuscan team scored by Pietro Pellegri shortly after half an hour of play was responded to in the second half – after a long push by the Giallorossi – number 50 Pierotti. The goal that fixed the result on the final score of the match arrived in the 77th minute, started by the Argentine footballer himself and then concluded with a winning header after a well-calibrated cross from Gallo.
The home team built more scoring chances, but even tonight Gotti’s boys proved that they had an enormous effort in scoring. After the 0-1 goal, the home team rushed forward and, especially in the second half, called Vasquez several times for important interventions. In the 84th minute, directly from a free kick, Sansone also hit the crossbar. Then the same wood was hit two minutes later by Krstovic, confirming that Lecce was looking for a three-point goal until the end, but without finding it. For Empoli, what was achieved tonight at Via del Mare was a good draw and the second consecutive useful result after the narrow victory against Como: the Tuscan team arrives at the November break with fifteen points won in twelve games.
