MILAN (AP) — Empoli has beaten fellow struggler Lecce 1-0 in Serie A for its first win since January. Francesco Caputo’s 62nd-minute penalty kick ended a four-match losing run and lifted Empoli 12 points above the bottom three. Lecce is four points below the Tuscan side. Kickoff was delayed for an hour after a small fire started in the Empoli dressing room because of a short circuit. It was swiftly brought under control.
