Today Italian football fans witnessed two matches from the eighth round of "Serie A".
In the previous season's vice-champion "Roma" defeated "Empoli" at home and temporarily found themselves just one point behind the leader "Fiorentina" from Florence.
In the first half, the game was fought and equal, but neither team managed to score. However, after the break, "giallorossi" managed to beat the opponents' goalkeeper three times in just thirteen minutes.
Initially, Miralem Pjanić converted a great penalty kick, a few minutes later Daniele De Rossi scored from a corner kick delivered by the same Bosnian, and later Mohamed Salah put the final nail in the coffin of "Empoli". The guests managed to score a consolation goal, but it had no impact on the outcome of the match.
In the other match, there was a draw between the teams of "Milan" and "Torino". For the "Fashion Capital" footballers, after three wins and four losses, it was their first such result.
After playing just over an hour, they were led by Carlos Bacca, who has been in good form this season, but after ten minutes Daniele Baselli restored the balance.

"Roma" 3 - 1 "Empoli"
