Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Udinese 1-1 Lazio in the Serie A on Saturday, 27 December 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
The match between Udinese and Lazio ended in a 1-1 draw. Lazio took the lead in the 80th minute when Udinese defender Oumar Solet scored an own goal from a Matteo Cancellieri cross, shifting momentum after a tightly contested game where both sides had shared possession fairly evenly. Udinese, coming off a mixed run including a heavy 1-5 loss to Fiorentina but a solid 1-0 win over Napoli, pushed hard in the closing stages to salvage a point.
The equaliser arrived deep into stoppage time at 90+5’, with Keinan Davis heading home a Nicolò Zaniolo assist to rescue the draw for the hosts. This late drama reflected Lazio’s recent form of draws and narrow results, such as their 0-0 with Cremonese and 1-1 against Bologna, as they failed to hold onto the advantage despite controlling more of the ball. Overall, the result keeps both teams in mid-table contention without major shifts in their campaigns.
Lazio edged possession with 54% compared to Udinese’s 46%, suggesting they dictated play slightly more, though Udinese countered effectively with 38 successful dribbles against Lazio’s 31, highlighting their threat in transition. Corners were close at six for Lazio and five for Udinese, pointing to balanced attacking opportunities, while the assist count favoured Udinese with one recorded, tying into their late equaliser. Cards accumulated with Udinese picking up three yellows and Lazio four, reflecting a feisty encounter without any reds to disrupt the flow.
Both teams used four substitutions each, with Udinese making a triple change in the 87th minute where Matteo Palma replaced Alessandro Zanoli, Adam Buksa came on for Christian Kabasele, and Lennon Miller took over from Jesper Karlström, alongside an earlier switch at 66’ when Hassane Kamara replaced Nicolò Bertola. Lazio’s changes included Taty Castellanos replacing Tijjani Noslin at 74’, Gustav Isaksen coming on for Matteo Cancellieri at 81’, and a double substitution at 88’ with Oliver Provstgaard replacing Mario Gila and Manuel Lazzari taking over from Luca Pellegrini, all aimed at managing energy in a game that saw no penalties or injury-time goals beyond the late drama.
The game’s turning point came in the 80th minute when Oumar Solet scored an own goal for Lazio, deflecting a Matteo Cancellieri delivery into his own net to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. Udinese responded dramatically at 90+5’, as Keinan Davis equalised with a header assisted by Nicolò Zaniolo, ensuring the points were shared. Yellow cards added tension early on, with Nicolò Zaniolo booked for Udinese at 13’ and Danilo Cataldi for Lazio at 14’, while later cautions for players like Christian Kabasele at 51’ and Jesper Karlström at 77’ for the hosts, and Matteo Cancellieri at 40’, Luca Pellegrini at 84’, and Matías Vecino at 89’ for Lazio, underlined the competitive edge.
Substitutions influenced the late phases, particularly Udinese’s 87th-minute triple switch bringing on Matteo Palma, Adam Buksa, and Lennon Miller, which helped build pressure for the equaliser. Lazio’s adjustments, such as Taty Castellanos entering at 74’ and Gustav Isaksen at 81’, aimed to protect their lead but could not prevent the stoppage-time setback.
Udinese lined up in a 3-5-2 formation, relying on a solid defensive base with players like Christian Kabasele and Oumar Solet, while midfielders such as Jesper Karlström and wing-backs like Alessandro Zanoli and Nicolò Bertola provided width. Keinan Davis led the attack, forming a key partnership up front, and Nicolò Zaniolo’s creativity shone through with his assist for the late equaliser. Substitutes like Hassane Kamara, Matteo Palma, Adam Buksa, and Lennon Miller added fresh legs in the second half to chase the game.
Lazio deployed a 4-3-3 shape, focusing on midfield control through players like Danilo Cataldi and Matías Vecino, with wingers such as Matteo Cancellieri offering pace and assists, as seen in the build-up to the own goal. Defenders including Mario Gila and Luca Pellegrini anchored the backline, while Tijjani Noslin started in attack before substitutions brought fresh options. Changes like Gustav Isaksen, Taty Castellanos, Oliver Provstgaard, and Manuel Lazzari helped manage the game’s intensity.
Bwin’s Man of the Match was Lazio goalkeeper Ivan Provedel, who made three crucial saves to keep his side in contention despite conceding once late on. His performance included two clearances and two punches, effectively dealing with Udinese’s pressure, especially in the second half. Provedel’s composure under fire was key in a match where Lazio held a slender lead until stoppage time.
