ROME – Genoa took a step toward safety with a 3-1 win at relegation-threatened Empoli in Serie A on Monday.

Christian Kouame, Darko Lazovic and Antonio Sanabria scored for Genoa while Giovanni Di Lorenzo had a temporary equalizer for Empoli.

Genoa moved up to 13th place, nine points above the drop zone, while Empoli remained 17th, only three points above the bottom three.
