After a first minute of play, Udinese's Nicolò Zaniolo already touched the crossbar with a precise left-footed shot, but the result remained sealed. In the second half, Parma had two important opportunities: a cross from Britschgi in the 43rd minute was headed by Carboni, but the ball ended up a few centimeters from the post; subsequently, a cross from Kamara found Ekklenkamp, who struck from close range without letting the ball in. Despite these attempts, no one managed to turn the situation into a goal.

In the 60th minute Zaniolo created an area for Davis, who finished with a clearance from Troilo. Udinese also had an action of great potential with a corner from Valeri which ended with a kick from Troilo, but the ball ended up out of the field.

He stressed that although there were passing and transition errors, the result was still positive for the team. As for Udinese, captain Kosta Runjaic acknowledged that the team was the best on the pitch, but also highlighted the bad luck that prevented them from scoring and the need to improve to continue making progress.
