English midfielder Tino Anjorin marked his first start for Empoli by setting up the opening goal in a 2-0 win at Cagliari in Serie A on Friday. The win was Empoli’s fifth game in a row undefeated, the club’s best start to a season in Serie A.

In Verona, Torino went top of the league with a 3-2 win. The home side played most of the match with 10 men after Pawel Dawidowicz was sent off in the 21st minute. Torino took the lead after 10 minutes when poor defending allowed Antonio Sanabria through on goal, and the Paraguayan striker made no mistake.

English midfielder Tino Anjorin has helped Empoli to its best ever start in Serie A. The former Chelsea player started for Empoli for the first time and set up Lorenzo Colombo to open the scoring against Cagliari after 33 minutes.

As mentioned, following the sackings of both Paolo Zanetti and then the returning Aurelio Andreazzoli, Davide Nicola managed to lead Empoli to survival on the final day of last season. This time around, former Lecce and Benevento boss Roberto D’Aversa is at the helm and the Florence-based club are overperforming their pre-season expectations.

Empoli continued their unbeaten run at the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign with an encouraging 2-0 win away to early strugglers Cagliari, who are still in the relegation zone after a winless start
