The first half of Cagliari-Udinese ends 1-1. Zarraga, a surprising choice for the guests, takes the lead, and Zortea responds. In the other match at the same time, Parma-Como 0-0 .

The Friulians start better, with Cagliari taking about ten minutes to get the measure of the match. Nothing happens until the 26th minute, then on a risky exit almost in the middle of the field by Caprile (anticipated by a teammate) the ball goes to Luvumbo who launches Piccoli, left footed from the edge of the area and the ball goes wide. On the occasion after Udinese scores: Rui Modesto takes advantage of a gap in Luperto and from the right crosses in for Zarraga's low shot, 0-1 in the 27th minute .

Cagliari often remains tangled up in the offside trap, with a couple of chances for Luvumbo thwarted by the flag (correctly) raised by the second assistant. But, in the 35th minute, the away defense is bypassed by a great pass from midfield by Makoumbou: perfect ball for Zortea, precise insertion and low shot just inside the area for 1-1 . It is his sixth goal in the championship.

Immediate reaction from Udinese, with Davis who in the 37th minute beats Luperto and with a shot from a tight angle forces Caprile to work . Then Cagliari is no longer surprised and the break begins after a minute of recovery.
