Lecce claw back a two-goal defecit to take a point from Milan. Might have taken all three had VAR not intervened and that fantastic strike had been allowed to stand.

Not seen up it, but did Giroud get sent off for dissent, complaining about the goal?

Obviously, dissent shouldn’t happen, but if it’s an obvious enough mistake, they should look at rescinding cards for that.
 
Was hoping Cagliari would get a point against Juve, unlikely I know but it isn't looking likey at the moment. Maybe they can do a Lecce in the dying moments.

No, Giroud gave lip to the referee over a possible handball and then, rather than hold his tongue, gave the referee some more. Lecce then scored a fantastic strike from distance, but the referee was advised to go over and check tape of a Lecce forward, with back to goal, deliberately stamping on a Milan player’s foot. Probably the correct call but a tough one because it didn’t look as if he’d turned round to see where the Milan player’s foot was.

Fair enough. He’s just been a silly boy then.
 
According to the art.36, first paragraph lett.a), recently modified, of our Sporting Justice Code, abusive or disrespectful behaviour during the match against the officials (in this case, the referee) — that doesn't result in physical contact — should be sanctioned with no less of four disqualification matchdays, unless there are mitigating circumstances. It needs to know what Abisso (the referee) will write on this report to be sent to the sport judge. Until last April, the minimum was "only" two.
 
Empoli’s keeper usually keeps them in the game. Really good shot stopper but there’s only so much he can do.

Currently still 0-0 but they’re going to have to find goals to stay in the league
