William Troost-Ekong returns to help Udinese avoid Verona defeat

William Troost-Ekong returned from injury to help Udinese claim a 0-0 draw against Hellas Verona in a Serie A game on Tuesday evening.

The 26-year-old centre-back last featured for Igor Tudor’s men in their draw against Parma before the international break, missing his side’s back-to-back defeats against Inter Milan and Brescia.

Against Ivan Juric’s men, the Nigeria international made a return to the starting line-up and impressed, helping the White and Blacks keep a clean sheet in the encounter.

After 90 minutes of action, both sides failed to break the deadlock and ended sharing the spoils at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.
