Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
AC Milan, 9h position with 48 points and a positive goal difference of +10
Udinese, 11th position with 40 points and a negative goal difference of -6

Udinese humiliated losing the Serie A Week 32 match against AC Milan on Friday, April 11, 2025, at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine, Italy.  AC Milan has achieved a much-needed victory after going three games without a win, bringing their total to 51 points in the league standings. This win is particularly encouraging as they are now just one point behind eighth-placed Fiorentina and four points shy of sixth-placed Lazio, which holds the final qualifying spot for the upcoming European cups.

On the other hand, Udinese suffered their fourth consecutive defeat, remaining in tenth place with 40 points, and they could be overtaken by Genoa if the rossoblù manage to defeat Verona.

Two goals in time for Milan, who after touching the advantage with Reijnders after not even a minute, finds the 1-0 at 42 ‘with the first intention shot from the edge of the Leao area, which sends the ball under the crossing on the Assist of Fofana. Only three minutes pass and the Rossoneri doubles with Pavlovic shoulder deviation on Pulisic corner. In the second half, after the fright for a bad blow in the head suffered by Maignan, then brought to the hospital for a head injury, the 3-0 with Theo Hernandez arrives, who receives from Abraham, enters the area and beats Okoye with a great shot on the first pole. Nine minutes from the end there is also time for Reijnders’ goal, which pushes a soft touch of Lea on goal, good at anticipating the exit of the Udinese goalkeeper.

Udinese is eager to secure points after suffering three straight defeats, aiming to climb back up the standings. A victory today would allow Kosta Runjaic’s team to temporarily surpass Torino, who is currently in tenth place and will play against Como on Sunday, while also closing the gap on Milan, who is eight points ahead. In their previous encounter, the bianconeri lost to Paulo Fonseca’s team with a score of 1-0.

AC Milan gained the advantage in the 42nd minute when Portuguese striker Rafael Leão found the net with a right-footed shot aimed at the top left corner. Youssouf Fofana provided the assist after the Rossoneri regained possession in the attacking midfield. Fofana delivered the ball to Leão just outside the box, and the Portuguese player struck it first time, sending it into the upper corner near the far post.

Excitement is soaring for the Rossoneri! Milan scored yet again in the 45th minute, right before the first half concluded. Strahinja Pavlovic struck from a short distance, sending the ball into the upper center of the net. Christian Pulisic provided the assist with a cross following a corner given away by Jaka Bijol. After Pulisic’s corner was played back, he made a shoulder pass to Pavlovic, who took his moment and beat Okoye.

Udinese encountered further difficulties when Milan scored again in the 74th minute. Theo Hernández delivered a stunning left-footed shot into the top left corner, thanks to an assist from Tammy Abraham. Leao made a vertical pass to Abraham, who then laid the ball off for Hernández, enabling him to charge into the area and fire a strong shot past Okoye at the near post.

No further explanation needed! Milan wrapped up the match with a goal in the 81st minute, as Tijjani Reijnders scored with a left-footed shot directed at the high center. Rafael Leão was the one who assisted. Abraham switched the play to the left for Leão, who managed to control it and, with Okoye rushing out, passed it to Reijnders, who simply pushed it into the net.
