Englishman Davis scores late to rescue point for Udinese at Empoli
EMPOLI, Italy (AP) — Englishman Keinan Davis scored with 14 minutes remaining for Udinese to draw at Empoli 1-1 in Serie A on Monday and snap the visitor’s three-game losing streak.
The former Watford and Aston Villa striker rose to head home a near-post corner with 76 minutes gone.
Pietro Pellegri put Empoli ahead midway through the first half with his third goal in three games.
The on-loan Torino striker has endured a lean season but a goal in the 1-0 win over Como was followed by another in the 1-1 draw with Lecce before the international break.
The result was the first point in four games for Udinese, after consecutive defeats to Atalanta, Juventus and Venezia, and meant that both sides retained their mid-table positions.
Udinese was ninth and Empoli 10th.
