Serie A: Como Triumphs 4-1 Over Udinese in Thrilling 10-vs-10 Match

Como secured an impressive 4-1 home victory against Udinese in Sunday’s Serie A clash, with both sides reduced to 10 men. Assane Diao continued his scoring form, netting for the second consecutive match, while Gabriel Strefezza, Nico Paz, and an own goal from Jaka Bijol rounded out Como’s tally.

Diao opened the scoring early, building on his debut goal from last week. A well-crafted Como move saw Strefezza slip the ball to Diao, who fired into the roof of the net past Razvan Sava. Strefezza doubled the lead before halftime, capitalizing on a headed clearance to score through a crowded penalty area.

Udinese’s Martin Payero pulled one back shortly after the break with a precise finish from the edge of the box. The match then saw both teams reduced to 10 men, as Como’s Edoardo Goldaniga and Udinese’s Oumar Solet received second yellow cards in separate incidents.

Como regained their two-goal advantage when Alieu Fadera’s cross was turned into his own net by Udinese defender Jaka Bijol. Nico Paz, returning from injury, sealed the victory in the 90th minute, converting a cushioned pass from Yannik Engelhardt.

This crucial win lifts Como out of the relegation zone, while Udinese missed an opportunity to climb the table, remaining in 10th place. The result showcases Como’s resilience and attacking prowess, even when playing with reduced numbers.
