UDINE (ITALPRESS) – Roma conquered the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine 2-1 in the match valid as a continuation of the match interrupted on 14 April: a decisive goal from Bryan Cristante. The score therefore changes compared to the match which ended prematurely in the 72nd minute following Evan Ndicka’s illness. Eleven days ago the result was achieved after the opener scored by Roberto Pereyra in the 23rd minute, which was responded to by the equalizer scored by Romelu Lukaku in the 64th minute. Kamara, Ehizibue, Huijsen and Aouar were unavailable today because they were replaced in the first part of the match on 14 April and, according to the regulations, unusable for the continuation of the same match. Roma appear on the pitch with a very different formation compared to that of a few days ago, as Daniele De Rossi changes six players. Another important change is that on the bench of the Friulian club which, after starting the match under the technical guidance of Gabriele Cioffi, finds itself finishing the remaining 18 minutes with the new coach Fabio Cannavaro, making his debut on the Juventus bench. Once the match resumed in the 72nd minute, the Giallorossi immediately tried to gain possession of the ball, but the first real scoring opportunity fell to the home team, who came very close to taking the lead in the 81st minute with Lucca: a miracle from Svilar on the shot was decisive cross of the attacker. In the 85th minute Azmoun stole the ball from Perez and, while he was falling, shot towards the goal, finding the response in two movements from Okoye. At the last second, the Romans took the lead with a precise header from Bryan Cristante, following a corner kick from Dybala, and brought home a precious success. By virtue of this result, Roma consolidates fifth place, rising to 58 points, while Udinese is eighteenth at 28, in the relegation zone together with Frosinone.
