UDINE (ITALPRESS) – A match with two faces the one between Udinese and Venezia, with the Friulians winning 3-2 to move up to tenth place in the standings, while Venezia has to lick its wounds and collect yet another knockout. Five goals, all in the second half, with the double Bianconeri lead sealed by Lucca and Lovric, the equalizer concretized by the Venetians with first Nicolussi Caviglia and then Gytkjaer, until the final overtake realized for Udinese by Iker Bravo. With Pohjanpalo not even going to the bench (in the next hours medical examinations with Palermo), study phase by the two teams in the beginning of the match, with initiatives on both fronts but without sensational chances created neither by Udinese nor by Venezia, which around the twentieth is also forced to replace its goalkeeper, Stankovic, victim of a knee injury and taken over by Joronen. As the minutes pass Udinese grows, which on Lovric’s initiative finds the suggestion for Ekkelenkamp’s shot, but it is Joronen himself who is alert in the rebound. In fact, this is the only flash of a first half with many individual mistakes and blocked balance, contrary to what will happen at the start of the resumption.Only three minutes pass from the re-entry of the two teams and it is Udinese to find the advantage, on Kamara’s cross from the left that is misread by Joronen and thus pushed into the net by Lucca. Second consecutive goal for the Friulans’ striker. Five minutes later, the doubling with another indecision by Joronen that in the area favors Lovric’s sure-footed shot, to take advantage of another initiative on the three-quarter by Thauvin. Game seemingly downhill for the Bianconeri, but the reaction of coach Di Francesco’s eleven came at 64′, on Nicolussi Caviglia’s free kick that from the distance found the winning angle to beat Sava. All reopened in a second half much more rhythmic and that Venice, after the double disadvantage, faces openly, finding as said the goal that shortens the distance and then, at 78′, that of the equaliser, on the scramble from a corner that leads to the decisive deviation of Gytkjaer, giving reason to Di Francesco who had inserted him at the quarter hour of the resumption. Equality that would last only until the 84th minute, however, when Udinese would place the blow of the final 3-2: Solet’s breakaway and touch for Bravo’s outside shot that, from first, found the shot that gave his team a victory that had been missing since mid-December and that increasingly condemned Venezia, to yet another false step of its season. – Photo Ipa Agency -(ITALPRESS).
