A goal by Zanoli is worth three points for Genoa who beats Udinese at Ferraris 1-0 in the opening match of the program of the 31st day of the championship and armored a more than deserved salvation. At the same time boring but with a final with a thousand emotions in which the VAR cancels the draw of the Friulians signed by Modesto. Vieira finds Martin after disqualification and Lancia Thorsby and Malinovskyi in the three who act with Zanoli on the trocar in support of Pinamonti. 4 defense for Runjaic who leaves Lovric out and plays it with the two points: alongside Lucca, space for Iker Bravo.
Few ideas, however, for Udinese and are from Genoa all the best chance of the first fraction. At 5 ‘a great travele arrives from the trocar of Sabelli for the detachment of Thorsby who angles the conclusion well but finds the super intervention of Okoye. No difficulties for the goalkeeper instead in the rejection, shortly after, on the central shot of Pinamonti at the end of a rossoblu restart ‘triggered by a trivial ball lost by Kamara. Still with a cross the Ligurians are dangerous: after half an hour it is Thorsby to put in the center on the head of Pinamonti who crushes to the ground and makes the finished ball hold over the crossbar.
The only guest ring on a long throw from the rear on which a defective control of De Winter arrives: Lucca takes advantage of it to bag but first commits foul on the defender and the goal is immediately canceled. For the Juventus striker, the regret that will take the start of the second half is much larger when he attacks sowing Martin on the right and then offers a very comfortable ball in front of the door: Lucca kicks with a safe and sensationally sends to the side. On the opposite front an incomprehension of the outgoing between Okoye and Solet leads to the recovery of Zanoli’s ball with Pinamonti who again reaches the central conclusion blocked on the ground by the goalkeeper.
The second half that suddenly turns on in the final is more balanced. From a heyzibue cross comes the framed of modest on which Leali intervenes raising the ball over the crossbar. At minute 77 there is Genoa’s goal: Frendrup triggers Ekuban and the Italian-Ghanese puts in the middle strong and tense on the second post where Zanoli crosses the goalkeeper of counterbalance and fulminates. The 1-0 seems to bring down Udinese who must thank Okoye, good at keeping his own on the double chance of Ekuban and Thorsby. Vasquez also touches the 2-0 on corner developments, but in full recovery the thrill is all for the local fans: modest loyal strands after a double bank of Lucca and Bijol. The scream of the Friulian players remains choked in the throat because the VAR reports a millimeter offside of Lucca which is worth the cancellation of the 1-1. While Udinese chews bitter, at Ferraris the party for staying in the top flight starts.
