UDINE, Italy — Bryan Cristante scored in stoppage time and Roma made its second trip this month to Udinese worthwhile with a 2-1 win in the resumption of a suspended Serie A match that entailed playing only the final 18 minutes. The score was 1-1 on April 14 when Roma defender Evan Ndicka collapsed and the match was suspended. Ndicka was released from the hospital a day later with a collapsed left lung and has since been cleared to return to training. Cristante headed in a corner kick from Paulo Dybala on Roma's final opportunity during the resumption. The resumption marked the Serie A coaching debut of Fabio Cannavaro after he replaced the fired Gabriele Cioffi at Udinese.
