Davis scores as Udinese wins 3-1 at struggling Verona in Serie A
VERONA, Italy (AP) --- Former Aston Villa striker Keinan Davis scored for the
seventh time this season as his Udinese beat struggling Verona 3-1 on Monday.
Verona remained second bottom of Serie A, equal on 14 points with last-placed
Pisa, and it rarely looked like recording its third win of a dismal season.
Udinese took the lead after 23 minutes with a deflected shot from Arthur Atta.
Although Emmanuel Orban equalized for Verona three minutes later, Verona's
hopes did not last long into the second half.
Alessandro Zanoli put Udinese back in front 13 minutes into the second period.
Jordan Zemura's free kick was blocked by the wall and while the ball fell
awkwardly for Zanoli, his deft volley with the outside of his boot sailed into
the top corner.
Davis' confident finish after 66 minutes sealed the points for Udinese.
It remains in 10th but is now on 29 points, equal with ninth-placed Lazio, and
one point behind Bologna.
