The match between Inter Milan and Udinese in Serie A witnessed a dramatic incident when coach Simone Inzaghi was sent off just minutes before the end of the game, which concluded with a 2-1 victory for the Nerazzurri. After the match, Inzaghi admitted that the referee's decision was correct but explained the reason for his intense anger.

Inzaghi said: "The red card was justified because I made a mistake; I crossed the allowed lines and entered the pitch to protest the referee's decision."

He continued: "I was very angry about the foul committed on Joaquin Correa, as it led to a dangerous opportunity for the opponent, resulting in a corner that nearly led to a goal from Sulej. I was agitated, but that doesn't justify what I did."

He added: "I take responsibility, and I know that I won't be present in the next match, but the important thing is that the team maintained its lead and secured three crucial points."

He went on: "After making substitutions, we faced some difficulties, but the reason wasn't just tactical; some players were suffering from fatigue and minor injuries, and changes were necessary."
