Udinese-Sassuolo, ends 3-2. Beto decides, Gotti returns to win

UDINE. The championship match between Udinese and Sassuolo ends 3-2. Game full of emotions and reversals in the face. Lightning advantage of the bianconeri with Deulofeu, the guests overturned the score thanks to the scoring of Berardi and Frattesi, before the goals of Molina and Beto who at the turn of the two halves deliver the victory to Gotti’s team. Udinese thus regained the three points after two months of fasting. Second consecutive knockout for the neroverdi after the home one against Empoli.

Tactical change for Gotti who passes to the back four, alongside the “senators” Becao, Nuytinck and Samir the rookie Perez. Molina and Pereyra start in a more advanced position together with Deulofeu to trigger the only tip Beto. Arslan and Walace the two directors. Dionisi also relies on 4-2-3-1. As expected, Magnanelli takes over the suspended Maxine Lopez in midfield, while Traorè takes the place of Boga on the frontline, where there are also Berardi and Raspadori behind Defrel (Scamacca starts from the bench).

As against Verona in the previous home round, Udinese immediately started strong, taking the lead already in the 8th minute with Deulofeu (providential assist from Becao who serves the Spaniard in the heart of the area), but a duck from Silvestri allows to Berardi to promptly bring the guests back in a draw. The first half comes alive and the bianconeri suffer more and more from the opponent’s maneuver on the outside. At the same time the intensity of Sassuolo grows and finds the goal of 2-1 on 28 ‘: good Frattesi to anticipate Nuytinck on Rogerio’s cross from the left and to score with the left-handed. Udinese, forced to make two changes in the first half due to the injuries of Arslan and Samir, seem to capitulate, but Molina puts the Friulians back into the game by scoring their second goal of the season with a powerful conclusion from outside (Frattesi’s deviation was decisive).

The game is a swing of emotions that are not lacking even at the start of the second half, opened by Beto’s network that finalizes a counterattack by the hosts. At 3-2 Udinese gradually comes into control. Beto and Deulofeu are the most active in search of the safety goal but both miss the target. Sassuolo for its part is no longer able to sting as in the central part of the first half. Vain the grafts of Henrique and Scamacca in the middle of the second half to avoid defeat.
