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.

Serie A | Genoa 1-1 Roma: Dovbyk not enough for first victory

Artem Dovbyk scored his first goal in the Roma jersey, but Koni De Winter snatched a last-gasp equaliser for Genoa, so Daniele De Rossi still waits for his first win. The Giallorossi had Enzo Le Fée injured and Nicola Zalewski frozen out for rejecting a Galatasaray transfer, so Manu Koné got his first start. The hosts missed Junior Messias, Fabio Miretti, Alessandro Zanoli, Brooke Norton-Cuffy, Alan Matturro and David Ankeye. Tennis champion Stefanos Tsitsipas took centre stage during the warm-up, as he has been a Genoa supporter since childhood and got to enjoy the atmosphere. Paulo Dybala had penalty appeals waved away after 12 minutes for a Koni De Winter challenge and Johan Vasquez charged down the Gianluca Mancini header on the resulting corner. Koné blasted over from the edge of the ...
