With Becao Udinese beat Venice in the photo finish

With these three points, Cioffi’s bianconeri put their stay in Serie A in a safe

VENEZIA. Victory for Udinese who beat Penzo and beat Venezia in full recovery: 1-2 the final match. Hard defeat in key salvation for Zanetti’s men who are unable to make the most of the home round. Different speech for Cioffi’s bianconeri who with these three points put in a safe the permanence in A. Determined departure of Zanetti’s men but first goal opportunity that comes only after 25 minutes of the match.

Perfect throw by Ampadu for Johnsen who, face to face with Silvestri, catches control of the ball, making a great scoring opportunity disappear. The Friulians are struggling to find the rhythm of the match but, on the 34th minute, on the development of a corner, Deulofeu on the left points at Cuisance who lands him with a throw in the Veneto area. The lead referee has no doubts and immediately indicates the penalty spot. From eleven meters, the Spaniard presents himself with a powerful right-footed plate that displaces Maenpaa and celebrates the 0-1 goal that closes the first portion of the match.

In the second half, Udinese, at 49 ‘, has the opportunity to score the goal of the possible 0-2: wrong back pass by Haps and an offensive attempt by Beto who, however, fails to surprise Maenpaa, who saves the result by sending the ball in angle. Having escaped the danger, Venezia tries to shake up in the desperate search for the equalizer. At 64 ‘, Crnigoj extends his head for Henry; defiled on the right, the Frenchman stops the ball and tries the net by crossing the right, but Silvestri is reactive and rejects the ball.

The Friulian response was not long in coming and, in the 70th minute, Makengo entered the area and scored from close range, but Maenpaa was careful and blocked the ball in two halves. In the final match, the pace of the match suddenly rises and, in the 80 ‘, directly from the free kick, Molina kicks around towards the goal; Maenpaa’s response is exemplary and in diving rejects the ball. Maenpaa’s prowess awakens the lagoons who, in the 41st minute, find the 1-1 with Henry who takes advantage of a rebound in the area and beats Silvestri with a right-footed shot. In an attempt to win the game, the hosts poured into the Friuli area but, in the 94th minute, on the development of a corner, Becao anticipated everyone and headed Maenpaa for the 1-2 that closed the game.
