In a thrilling Serie A match on Monday, Udinese staged a remarkable comeback against Parma, overcoming a two-goal deficit to secure a 3-2 victory. The match began poorly for Udinese, as Parma took an early lead with a goal from Enrico Del Prato just two minutes in, followed by a second goal from Ange-Yoan Bonny just before halftime. Despite the challenging situation, Udinese remained determined to turn the game around. The second half saw a shift in momentum when Lorenzo Lucca scored a header from a Hassane Kamara cross, narrowing the gap to 2-1. This goal ignited Udinese's fightback, and Florian Thauvin played a pivotal role, equalizing midway through the second half with a header from Keinan Davis. The match took a dramatic turn when Mandela Keita, making his debut for Parma, received a red card in the 73rd minute, providing Udinese with a crucial advantage. With the numerical advantage, Udinese capitalized on the situation, and just four minutes later, Thauvin netted the winning goal, completing his brace and sealing the comeback victory.
