? Udinese's initiative against violence towards women

In the matchday where Serie A stands against violence towards women, Udinese wanted to send a message.

UN ROSSO ALLA VIOLENZA! ?

All the players took to the field wearing a shirt that, on the back, did not have their surname but the name of their mothers, sisters, and daughters.

? Ehizibue handball, Orsolini's penalty blunder

In the 40th minute, after a long VAR review, referee Sacchi was called to the monitor and awarded a penalty for a handball by Ehizibue.

The decision was due to the defender increasing the volume of his body, as explained to the whole stadium at the time of the call.

Riccardo Orsolini stepped up to the spot, but took a terrible shot, failing to give it either power or angle with the inside of his foot.

Okoye guessed the direction and saved. The number 7's goal drought continues, having failed to score in the previous 4 matches as well. It's only his second miss out of 18 penalties taken, the only other time being on September 2, 2023, against Cagliari.

❌ Goal disallowed, Orsolini "teases" the Curva

Luck is not on Orsolini's side. At the end of the first half, the Bologna winger beat Okoye by making the most of a pass from Miranda and charging towards goal.

However, the goal was disallowed for offside at the moment of the assist. The Udinese curva erupted, and in response, he made a clear gesture as if to say, "I was almost there, calm down."
