Milan earned its first Serie A win of the season after Luiz Adriano's headed goal sealed a 2-1 victory over Empoli.
Luiz Adriano's thumping second-half headed goal gave Milan a much-needed 2-1 win over Empoli, but Sinisa Mihajlovic's side was made to work hard for its first three points of the Serie A season.
Carlos Bacca scored a superb breakaway goal to give Milan a first-half lead that lasted just four minutes, as Riccardo Saponara slotted home an equalizer that was no less than the lively visitors deserved at San Siro.
Milan desperately needed a win to placate its supporters after a 2-0 opening day defeat to Fiorentina, but it looked vulnerable in defense throughout an encounter that gave Empoli more than enough chances to claim all three points.
