The game started with a wrong foot. Udinese scoring an own goal in the 42nd minute with Ali Adnan putting Sassuolo in the lead.
Udinese leveling the situation for the 1-1 in the 44th minute. It is Seko Fofana to defeat Sassuolo goalkeeper with a right footed shot in the top right corner. The assist is by Ali Adnan… a redemption moment for Adnan providing this assist.
The winner goal for Sassuolo arrives in the 75th minute. It is Stefano Sensi to give Sassuolo this precious victory after his right footed shot in the top right corner. The assist is by Matteo Politano.
