Udinese failed to win the Serie A Week 16 game after leading 2-0 to end 2-2 on Sunday 17 December 2023 at the Dacia Arena in Udine, Italy. Incredible match at the Dacia Arena. At the start, Udinese doubled their lead with Roberto Pereyra, with the match now seeming to be on the Juventus track. However, the red card for Payero, guilty of having charged Sassuolo, completely mixed up the cards. The Neroverdi began to attack with continuity, hitting two balls, but at the same time winning two penalties: from the spot, in both cases, Domenico Berardi and on both occasions, the result was the same. A brace for the neroverde. Surely, this is a flop for Udinese.
In the next round, Udinese will face Torino, while Sassuolo will have to deal with Genoa.
Udinese took the lead in the 36th minute. Lorenzo Lucca defeated Sassuolo goalkeeper Andrea Consigli with a headed shot to the center. The assist is by Roberto Pereyra.
