M’Bala Nzola fired into the bottom right corner with three minutes remaining after Joao Ferreira had been penalised for handball.

Fiorentina could have even won the match, but Giacomo Bonaventura’s strike came off the right post in stoppage time.

Udinese had twice taken the lead through Sandi Lovric and Florian Thauvin.

Lucas Beltran netted the first equaliser for Fiorentina, before Nzola’s penalty.

Udinese were a point above the relegation zone and level on points with Cagliari after Claudio Ranieri’s side came from behind to beat Bologna 2-1 and climb out of the relegation zone themselves.
