A quarter of an hour before the end, Simeone ran on a stretched cross to the far post of Radu’s goal and headed the winner. They added Lozano and Olivera safeties in the setup. The rookie Cremona has not yet won in the league and is penultimate with three points, ahead of Sampdoria Genoa.
The Bergamo players do not keep the two-goal advantage on the Udinese field. The visitors were put ahead in the 36th minute by Lookman on a clever pass from Muriel, who then scored 2-0 from the spot in the second half. Udine reduced the score in the 67th minute thanks to Deulofeu, and 11 minutes later Pérez equalized 2: 2. In the end, the home team reached three points, but couldn’t use the pressure.
