GENOA, Italy — A late winner from Alessandro Zanoli gave Genoa a 1-0 win over Udinese in Serie A and extended its unbeaten home run to six games on Friday.
After an insipid first half, Zanoli scored in the 77th minute when he pounced on a rebound and shot home from an angle.
But Patrick Vieira’s men survived a late scare when Rui Modesto’s stoppage-time equalizer was ruled out after a video review.
The win means Udinese has lost three in a row and is only two points ahead of Genoa, which sits two places behind it in 12th spot.
