Milan x Udinese - Highlights, Summary and Match Report

Udinese produced a superb performance at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza to beat Milan 3-0 in Serie A 25/26, turning the match on its head with a ruthless first half and a composed finish after the break.

The visitors struck first in the 27th minute through Arthur Atta, who finished from the right side of the box after a swift counter-attack. Milan?s misery deepened shortly afterwards when Davide Bartesaghi turned the ball into his own net, before Jurgen Ekkelenkamp added a second for Udinese with a close-range header.

Despite enjoying 63% possession and registering 20 shots, Milan could only test the target three times and could not find a way back into the contest. Udinese, with just 37% of the ball, were far more efficient, making the most of their chances and their direct approach.

The result was sealed in the 71st minute when Atta found the left corner after being set up by Ekkelenkamp, completing a convincing 3-0 victory for the away side. Udinese also edged the expected goals count, finishing with 1.45 against Milan?s 2.15, in a match where their finishing proved decisive.
