Udinese ended the match against Parma with a 0-0 draw, but coach Kosta Runjaic saw the match as a "small step forward". In his interview with DAZN, Runjaic reiterated that, despite the lack of goals, the team demonstrated that it was the best on the pitch, having created more chances and shown a greater desire to win than its opponent.

Runjaic underlined the importance of getting a clean sheet, a result he considered "a bit strange" due to the penalty and Okoye's save. He also highlighted how the team maintained defensive security, avoiding conceding easy goals, and praised the commitment of all the players, in particular Zaniolo and Davis, for which he said that "we saw how important they are". According to the coach, the team played with determination and demonstrated that they could control the match, despite facing an opponent who is good at transitions.

The coach also recalled that, although the result was a draw, the objective was victory. He expressed the need to recover and continue to make progress, especially in view of the upcoming matches against top-level teams. Runjaic mentioned that Udinese have 72 points before the next match and that the following week will be "a tough week", with Milan having lost and putting a lot of run against them. The coach asked the players to rest as best they could and hope to continue making progress.

In summary, Udinese obtained a neutral but positive result, with the team proving to be the best on the pitch and having maintained defensive security. The coach expressed confidence in the team and asked to continue making progress, especially in view of the next important matches.
