The match was a rollercoaster ride, with Udinese taking an early lead through Jesper Karlstrom's header. However, the momentum shifted in Fiorentina's favor after Lorenzo Lucca scored his 12th goal of the season with a powerful shot into the bottom left corner.
As the match progressed, Udinese's momentum stalled, and they were reduced to 10 men after Jaka Bijol was sent off for a challenge on Pablo Mari. This gave Fiorentina the opportunity to take control, and they capitalized on it with Nicolo Fagioli's equalizing goal just after the restart.
Pietro Comuzzo then sealed the turnaround with an audacious backheel kick into the Udinese net, putting Fiorentina in the lead. However, Udinese managed to level the score through Christian Kabasele's goal, which came from a defensive mistake.
Fiorentina pushed hard for the win, but Udinese's goalkeeper Maduka Okoye made several crucial saves. In the end, it was Moise Kean who emerged as the hero, scoring the winning goal with just eight minutes left to play. His shot deflected into the net, securing a 3-2 victory for Fiorentina and a spot in the Conference League.
