Events
Match Events
- 0' Genoa CFC have kicked off against Udinese Calcio. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 5' Iker Bravo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 10' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Kosta Runjaić will be considering his options from the bench.
- 15' Stefano Sabelli, a Italy , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 20' Jesper Karlstrom has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.

- 26' Morten Frendrup has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 26.
- 31' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Udinese Calcio needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 36' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Alessandro Zanoli suffering a number of foals already.
- 41' Genoa CFC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Udinese Calcio backline.
- 46' Genoa CFC currently sit 12 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

- 53' A quiet spell here at Stadio Luigi Ferraris. Genoa CFC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 55' Genoa CFC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Jean Onana is hanging Patrizio Masini on the field on 55 minute.
- 56' The referee shows Udinese Calcio player a card on 56.
- 58' Jurgen Ekkelenkamp is having his name booked by the referee on 58.
- 61' Martin Payero has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jurgen Ekkelenkamp on 61 minute.
- 66' The travelling Udinese Calcio supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 69' Time for substitution for Genoa CFC. Ruslan Malinovskiy is replaced by Caleb Ekuban.
- 70' Udinese Calcio manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Rui Modesto is hanging Oier Zarraga on the field on 70 minute.
- 75' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 77' What a strike from Alessandro Zanoli! The score is 1-0.
- 79' Thomas Kristensen gets the nod from Udinese Calcio. He replaces Kingsley Ehizibue and will look to change the dynamic.
- 80' A tactical swap from Udinese Calcio — Simone Pafundi on, Iker Bravo off on 80 minutes.
- 83' A change in the Genoa CFC ranks — Morten Thorsby exits the field as Lior Kasa enters on 83.
- 84' The Genoa CFC bench stirs into life. Alessandro Zanoli is withdrawn and Junior Messias gets his opportunity.
