Udinese ended the 2022/23 Serie A campaign with a narrow defeat to Juventus on Sunday evening. Federico Chiesa scored the only goal of the game, curling past Marco Silvestri from inside the box on 68 minutes. It was nonetheless a spirited display from the hosts, who gave a Serie A debut to Axel Guessand and a first start in Italy's top flight to James Abankwah, who played either side of Nehuén Pérez in a back three.
