🔙 Zanoli stunner as Udinese hit three, Verona collapse to bottom 📉 | OneFootball

A jolt was needed, a big win to try to breathe and push away the specter of last place. Instead, at the Bentegodi comes yet another defeat for Hellas Verona, who fall at home against a ruthless Udinese.

The transfer market doesn’t help and the emergency remains total: the Scaligeri slip again, while the Friulani celebrate a win that’s worth double, catching up with Lazio in ninth place with 29 points.

The evening starts off perfectly for the Friulani: in the 23rd minute, Atta breaks the deadlock, finding the net for the first time since the end of August. Verona, however, reacts immediately: it takes just three minutes for Orban to restore parity and get his team back in the game. 

In the second half, though, the script changes. The yellow and blue wall crumbles when Zanoli invents a true wonder goal, a “Pavard-style” strike that lights up Udinese’s evening. It’s the blow that definitively breaks Verona’s resistance. Shortly after, Davis, the standout performer, seals it with a thunderbolt that Perilli can’t stop, closing the game.

It ends 3-1 for Udinese. Verona sinks to last place level on points with Pisa, with numbers that set off alarm bells: 18 goals scored and 37 conceded. 

🔙 ATTA SCORES AGAIN: UDINESE TAKE THE LEAD

After the first 20 minutes of dominance, Udinese break the deadlock with Atta, who brings a precious +3 for fantasy football managers, ending a goal drought that had lasted since the end of August.

The Bianconeri midfielder collects the ball at the edge of the box from a Zemura assist, shoots to the far post and beats Perilli, who is distracted by an attempted intervention from Slotsager, a 2006-born defender.

💪 VERONA RESPONDS IMMEDIATELY WITH ORBAN

The Friulani’s lead lasts very little. Just three minutes later, in the 26th minute, Verona responds with the usual Gift Orban. Sarr wins back the ball and delivers a perfect assist into the box: Orban controls and finishes with his left foot without mistake.

The Nigerian striker has now scored seven goals in Serie A, numbers that confirm his central role in Zanetti’s lineup and bring everything back to level: 1-1 between Verona and Udinese.

☄️ ZANOLI "PAVARD-STYLE": WHAT A GOAL

Just over ten minutes into the second half and Udinese take the lead again thanks to a stunning goal from Zanoli.

The Bianconeri winger collects the ball at the corner of the box after a free kick clearance and smashes in a half-volley that gives Hellas Verona no chance.

For Zanoli, it’s his first goal in the league, scored with a technical move reminiscent of Pavard’s historic goal against Argentina at the 2018 World Cup.

💪 DAVIS THUNDERBOLT: UDINESE MAKE IT THREE

Davis crowns a standout performance with a real thunderbolt that blasts through Perilli’s hands. The Verona goalkeeper can do nothing about the Bianconeri striker’s effort, assisted by Atta.

The Udinese forward thus capitalizes on his team’s lead, scoring the third goal in the 67th minute and putting a likely seal on the match. Just over 20 minutes remain, but the Scaligeri must react to save the result.
