Milan: Spaniard Fernando Torres scored his maiden goal for AC Milan on his full Serie A debut to help spark the fightback in a 2-2 draw away to Empoli on Tuesday. Empoli had won only two of their 18 previous league meetings with Milan and never beaten the Rossoneri at their Carlo Castellani stadium.

However the Serie B runners-up made the most of a sluggish start by Filippo Inzaghi's men to race to a 2-0 lead inside 20 minutes thanks to goals from Lorenzo Tonelli and Manuel Pucciarelli. In the end Milan escaped with a point, but having been stunned by Empoli's pace Inzaghi admitted "If we want to achieve some of the ambitions we've set out we can't afford to concede goals in such a manner," the former Milan striker told Sky Sport Italia.
