Goalkeeping Brilliance

The ball spilled into the 18 yard box, bouncing dangerously. Muriel rushed forward for the rebound—but Reijnen slid in with a crucial block, sending the ball out for a corner!

[AZ Alkmaar are fighting for every inch, David. That was an all-or-nothing challenge!]

The corner was taken short, Pereyra rolling it back to Fernandes, who swung in a deep cross.

Danilo rose highest, meeting it with a firm header—but it sailed over the bar!

The defender slapped his hands in frustration as Alvarado retrieved the ball quickly, urging his teammates forward.

[Udinese had their chance there, Marco. They need to be more clinical if they want to kill this game off]

[Exactly, David. AZ Alkmaar are still in this. And if Udinese don't find that second goal, they could live to regret it]

Alvarado launched a long ball upfield. It fell to Henriksen, who controlled it beautifully before feeding it wide to Benjamin.
