Udinese-Roma was suspended due to a medical emergency of Evan Ndicka, who suffered a chest problem and collapsed on the field. All the players on the field called the attention of the paramedics, who entered the field to assist the number 5 from Roma with a defibrillator. Moments of fear and bated breath throughout the stadium, with fans and players waiting for news on the defender. After about 10 minutes of waiting, Daniele De Rossi asked referee Pairetto to suspend the match, with the official sending everyone to the locker rooms shortly after the 80th minute.

Ndicka, chest pain in Udinese-Roma: match definitively suspended. De Rossi: «The guys can't continue»

When it will be rescheduled

The match has been postponed to a date yet to be determined, and the rescheduling could take place in the coming weeks. It is not clear when the match will be rescheduled, but for now, it is possible to rely on the news known about Fiorentina-Atalanta. Since Udinese does not play midweek competitions, everything depends on Roma and their journey in the Europa League.

If Roma were to be eliminated by Milan on Thursday, April 18, then the game could be played the following week or even the week after. However, if the Giallorossi were to continue, then the date would slip to the following months. The worst-case scenario is the one that also includes Fiorentina-Atalanta, meaning that the match would be played at the end of the season, with Roma's journey in the Europa League not stopping. In case the Giallorossi were to reach the final, then the match against Udinese would be rescheduled for June.
