Antonio Di Natale UdineseUdinese striker Antonio Di Natale has dedicated his goal against Genoa to teammate Duvan Zapata.

The Zebrette drew 1-1 with Genoa on Sunday afternoon in Serie A, with Di Natale opening the scoring before the Rossoblu got an equaliser from the penalty spot.

“I’m happy because we played well against a great Genoa team,” the Italian told the press after the match.

“We took the lead but eventually drew, which was probably the right result.”

He then said the goal was for injured teammate Zapata, who has been ruled out for four months.

“I dedicate my goal to Zapata and hope to see him again soon on the pitch,” he said.

Udinese sit 14th in the Serie A league table after the draw while Genoa are 15th, but are equal on both points and goals with the Friuli club.
