In the end, a goal from Cristante with time expired decided the match. Roma conquers Udinese’s pitch and gives Fabio Cannavaro his first defeat of the championship. In injury time in the last 20 minutes of the match against Udinese, the Giallorossi gained three very important points in the fight for a Champions League spot. The match last April 14th was suspended due to an illness in N’Dicka and was resumed just yesterday.
Cannavaro’s words
“Certainly – Fabio Cannavaro said in the press conference – even in twenty minutes it turned out that there is some nervousness, there are carelessness that are paid for. I said that they have to stay calm, if I send them onto the pitch and they make a mistake, it’s the fault It’s not theirs, but mine, it’s normal that if you’re in this situation it means we make a lot of mistakes. From two days ago onwards I’ve been trying to limit these costly mistakes.”
De Rossi’s analysis
This is what Daniele De Rossi declared in the press room: “I spoke with the boys, I said jokingly that I had no idea what I had to do, I had never prepared twenty minutes of the match. I knew that probably playing with many attackers perhaps after only one minute I had to make substitutions to give more balance or maybe someone had to warm up so as not to even play, but there was application from all the boys.”
