At the “Unipol Domus” stadium, it was the guests who took the lead on 27′ with Zarraga materializing an excellent assist from Davis.

In the second half, it was Udinese that created the best scoring chances, and at 67′ the forcing of Runjaic’s men paid off: on the development of a corner, the ball ended up at the feet of Kristensen, who scored an empty goal after decisive indecisions by Augello and Adopo.

At the Stadio “Ennio Tardini”, on the other hand, the two teams go close to the lead on more than one occasion in the first half, but a pinch of inaccuracy combined with the skill of the two goalkeepers keeps the result nailed on 0-0.

In the resumption, the changes became decisive on both sides. In fact, on 79′ the newly-entered Douvikas and Strefezza pack the 1-0 goal, with the former Lecce man being good at slipping Suzuki a precise left-footed shot. In the Parma home, however, it was the substitute Man who had the chance for the equalizer in the midst of the recovery, but the Romanian outfielder shot very high from an excellent position.

With three days to go, Cagliari and Parma remain at +7 and +6 respectively on the relegation zone, with Venezia, which, thanks to its draw with Torino, has nibbled another point in its salvation chase.
