Udinese 1 - 0 Sampdoria: Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu fires Udinese to win over Vincenzo Montella's Sampdoria
Posted Monday, November 23, 2015 by PA
Udinese secured a much needed 1-0 victory against Sampdoria in their Serie A clash at the Stadio Friuli on Sunday.
Vincenzo Montella was unveiled as Sampdoria's new manager earlier in the week after Walter Zenga was fired following just 14 games in charge.
But the former Fiorentina manager got off to a losing start on Sunday after Udinese midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu scored the only goal of the game.
The Ghanaian ghosted into the Sampdoria box and converted Cyril Thereau's knock-down with 34 minutes gone, lifting the team that began the day just outside the bottom three.
To make matters worse for the visiting side, Ervin Zukanovic was shown a straight red card for a foul on Agyemang-Badu in the closing minutes.
