Como Dominates Udinese with 4-1 Win, Climbing to 13th in Serie A

Como demonstrated their growing potential with a commanding 4-1 victory over Udinese in the 21st round of Serie A. Fabregas’ squad showed remarkable improvement, rising from near-relegation to 13th place in the league standings.

The home team dominated the first half, taking a 2-0 lead through goals from Diao and Strefezza. Udinese briefly threatened a comeback when Payero scored early in the second half, and Como was reduced to 10 men after Goldaniga’s dismissal.

However, Udinese failed to capitalize on their advantage. Solet’s red card evened the playing field, and an unfortunate own goal by Bijol effectively ended Udinese’s hopes. Nico Paz sealed the 4-1 victory with a late tap-in, capping off an impressive team performance.

This crucial win propels Como from 18th to 13th place, marking a significant turnaround in their season. For Udinese, the defeat likely ends their aspirations for European qualification, despite showing moments of promise throughout the match.
