Udinese 2 - 0 Empoli: Udinese ease to first win of the season
Posted Monday, August 29, 2016 by PA
Felipe and Stipe Perica were both on target as Udinese secured a 2-0 victory over Empoli at the Dacia Arena.
The hosts, who suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Roma in their opening Serie A game last weekend, made a great start and from an early corner defender Felipe was in the right place to stab the ball home.
Empoli were almost back on level terms in the 35th minute but Riccardo Saponara's fierce shot hit the woodwork.
The visitors suffered a blow when Vincent Laurini was sent off in the 73rd minute and Perica closed out the game with a goal in added time.
