After a nightmare start last week at Fiorentina, AC Milan needed a better result on their home debut Saturday against Empoli.
With the international break and then the season's first Derby della Madonnina looming, it was important for Sinisa Mihajlovic's men to take three points.
Take them they did, with the hosts claiming a 2-1 victory, but the Rossoneri certainly didn't look particularly good doing it. Both of their goals came more or less from nowhere, and Empoli took three times as many shots.
Despite the shakiness of the performance, three points are three points, and Milan will now go into the break on a high note.
