Udinese retained Serie A status for another season with a crucial and hard-fought 1-0 victory away at Frosinone on Sunday evening. In the team's final match of the league campaign, Keinan Davis chose the perfect time to score his first goal for the club, netting the winner with only 15 minutes remaining. It was an excellent volleyed strike from the English youngster, who applied an emphatic finish to Lorenzo Lucca's chested assist. The goal proved crucial for Fabio Cannavaro's men and condemned the hosts to relegation to Serie B due to Empoli's win over Roma.
