Pierotti’s first goal for Lecce lifts club off bottom

Argentine forward Santiago Pierotti scored his first goal for Lecce to help stave off another Serie A defeat with a 1-1 draw against Empoli.

Antonio Gallo crossed from the left for the centrally positioned forward to head a late equaliser for the home team.

It was Pierotti’s first goal in 22 Serie A appearances since joining Lecce from Argentine club Colón de Santa Fe in January.

Lecce started the game bottom of the table after losing five of their previous seven matches, but Friday’s point lifted them above Monza and Venezia before they play Lazio and Parma, respectively.

Pietro Pellegri had fired inside the left post from outside the penalty area in the 33rd for Empoli, his second goal in as many games.

Pellegri’s goal for the 1-0 win over Como last weekend was his first since his summer switch from Torino.
