The Egypt striker could have given his side the lead after 17 minutes but he slipped with the goal at his mercy.

He made amends on 28 minutes, converting a penalty after midfielder Yasin Oztekin was brought down inside the area.

Zidan also found the net in Dortmund's 2-0 win over Paderborn 07 earlier this week.

Kevin Grosskreutz doubled the lead over Udinese with a 35th-minute goal before Gaetano D'Agostino scored a late consolation for the Italian side.

Zidan will come face to face with his compatriot Gamal Hamza when Dortmund meet Bundesliga newly-promoted club Mainz on Tuesday.

Egyptian forward Hamza joined Mainz in the close season after his contract with Zamalek expired.
