Cagliari earned a 1-0 away win over Udinese in the fifth round of the Italian championship, with Daniel Maldini scoring the only goal of the match.
After a goalless first half, both sides continued to play cautiously. Cagliari eventually found the breakthrough in the 54th minute when midfielder Daniel Maldini took advantage of an opportunity to put the ball past the Udinese goalkeeper.
Udinese pushed for an equaliser, but Cagliari’s organised defence prevented the hosts from restoring parity. The final whistle confirmed a narrow victory for the visitors, who returned from Udine with three points.
