Late Zanoli goal gives Genoa win over Udinese in Serie A
GENOA, ITALY - APRIL 04: Alessandro Zanoli of Genoa celebrates scoring his team's first goal during the Serie A match between Genoa and Udinese at Stadio Luigi Ferraris on April 04, 2025 in Genoa, Italy.
A late winner from Alessandro Zanoli gave Genoa a 1-0 win over Udinese in Serie A and extended its unbeaten home run to six games on Friday.
After an insipid first half, Zanoli scored in the 77th minute when he pounced on a rebound and shot home from an angle.
But Patrick Vieira´s men survived a late scare when Rui Modesto´s stoppage-time equalizer was ruled out after a video review.
The win means Udinese has lost three in a row and is only two points ahead of Genoa, which sits two places behind it in 12th spot.
