VERONA. It 'a real playoff to turn permanently. Chievo and Udinese face each other with the same points in the standings and after major successes against Lazio and Milan. Delneri loses Faraoni but recovers Widmer, the Swiss in the field with the mask after missing Roma, Empoli and Milan. The pace of the Bentegodi is heavy because of the rain.
The game is immediately lively, without the so-called study phase. The first attack comes from Zapata on the left but with no results. The hosts responds soon after with Meggiorini who jumps beyond Samir to the right and forces Halfredsson to take refuge in a corner. On developments in the corner Radovanovic sends head on the bottom.
Before fifteen minutes Fofana and De Paul they try from the edge: the french calss for a one-two with Jankto but Frey intercepts; Argentina tries to the right but the aim is not precise.

Udinese seems to be more convinced in the attack compared to their opponents: Hallfredsson crossed for Zapata who only manages to touch, then a not well used corner from Jankto and a raid by the czech who procures another corner but this time nothing dangerous comes from the flag. Dangerous, however, is the soitary incursion from De Paul at 24', stopped by a providential intervention of Radovanovic.
At 29 'comes the first yellow card: Meggiorini enters hard on Zapata and Aureliano punishes him with the card. After half an hour, little happens. Chievo makes many mistakes, Udinese tries again but cannot create trouble to Sorrentino. At 42 'De Paul gets a yellow for a foul on Hetamaj.

The game continues to be affected by many errors. Between 63 'and 64' Maran makes two changes: Inglese for Pellissier and Izco for Rigoni.
Immediately after Karnezis low output anticipates Meggiorni started by the newcomer Inglese. Cesar Zapata continue their personal duel. Two fouls in quick succession by the man from Verona are worth of the yellow card. At 69' Thereau tries to take Sorrentino by surprise with a sudden shot but the ball goes out of the field. The first change of Delneri arrives at 73' with the addition of Ali Adnan to replace Fofana. At 77' Thereau tries again from a distance, Radovanovic opposes him. Once again the ball doesn't go to Sorrentino. At 82' yet another tough intervention of Cesar, this time on Matos: second yellow card and expulsion. Chievo in ten in the last eight minutes recovers more. Maran takes Meggiorini and inserts Spolli to rebalance the defense. On the free kick to Hallfredsson "stretched" by Danilo, Ali Adnan hits well with his head and forces Sorrentino to do the first action of the game, an intervention that saves Chievo from capitulation. One minute before the ninetieth enters Kums instead of Jankto. Aureliano gave four minutes of recovery, but nthing happens anymore at Bentegodi. It ends scoreless. One small point for each team who look forward for the next match. Udinese will face the second consecutive away game, the opponent will be the Fiorentina.
