Udinese's early strike meets Douvikas' reply in a tense Bluenergy draw

Udinese's 1-1 draw with Como at the Bluenergy Stadium secures a point for both sides in Serie BKT, leaving their league positions unchanged while highlighting the contributions of Douvikas, Kamara and a missed chance by Bayo.

Kamara's early lead

Udinese took the initiative in the 28th minute when Kamara received a perfect through ball from Ekkelenkamp, burst past defender Cuoto and chipped goalkeeper Butez with a deft dink that left the Como keeper stranded.

The first half remained relatively quiet after the goal, with few clear-cut chances for either side as both defenses settled into shape.

Equaliser and late drama

Coming out of the break, Como restored parity in the 54th minute as Douvikas reacted quickest to Okoye’s rebound after a corner from Milla was headed by Chalobah, beating the Udinese goalkeeper with a close-range finish.

Later in the match, Bayo found himself one yard from an open net in the 88th minute after a brilliant run and pinpoint pass from Zaniolo, but he blasted the ball over the bar, missing a chance that could have handed Udinese the win.

Udinese striker Gueye out for 3 months after surgery

Ramon also threatened with a header that struck the crossbar, underscoring the end‑to‑end action that persisted until the final whistle.

Early in the game, Jesus Rodriguez suffered a knock in the 11th minute after a collision with an opponent, remaining on the ground for several minutes before continuing, while Gueye was forced off in the 71st minute after a knee injury following a header attempt.

The fixture also marked the debut of new signings for both clubs, with Udinese’s recent acquisition Cuoto featuring in the defensive line and Como introducing fresh faces alongside the established squad.
