Two days later, Monza, recently promoted and owned by Silvio Berlusconi, rallied with a victory over Empoli (2-1) in a close match leaving them temporarily in ninth place in Serie A .
With this result, Monza has almost done its homework for safety and even dares to look at the European positions, a difficult challenge as it is still nine points behind and has a game to play which is played.
Italian Patrick Ciurra opened the scoring with his fourth goal of the season thanks to the help of his compatriot Andrea Petagna, a former Napoli player, with a heel that left the striker alone so it was necessary he just got past Samuele Perisan, Empoli’s goal, in the 20th minute.
Satrian is bound
Uruguayan Martín Satriano showed on the scoreboard the equality reflected on the field of play, where neither team was able to impose their standard and rhythm clearly. With a header, at the far post, in the 50th minute, Satriano reset an Empoli looking to end their streak of five straight games without a win.
Izzo sentence
The joy was short-lived for the visitors and, in the 66th minute, Monza scored the final 2-1 thanks to a header from Italian Armando Izzo, who came to the rescue in the moment of greatest dominance by Empoli.
With this victory, Monza moved up to ninth, while Empoli added their sixth consecutive game without a win and remain in thirteenth position in the table, with 28 points, still with a cushion of eleven in first team in relegation, Hellas Verona .
