| | Marino enjoys Russian conquest |
Friday 7 November, 2008 |
| Udinese tactician Pasquale Marino couldn't hide his satisfaction at yesterday evening's important win over Spartak Moscow.
The Zebrette march on in Group D after a hard-fought 2-1 success on a cold evening in Russia.
“It was a fundamental win,” Marino declared after the final whistle at the Luzhniki Stadium.
“This was a victory against top quality opposition in tough conditions and we can now approach our next games in a calm fashion.”
The Bianconeri must now prepare to take on Inter at San Siro in a top-of-the-table encounter and influential hitman Antonio Di Natale is a doubt after missing last night's game with a virus.
“I don't know yet whether Di Natale will make it,” Marino admitted.
“But I have four strikers to consider - Fabio Quagliarella, Simone Pepe, Alexis Sanchez and Antonio Floro Flores. I may play Floro Flores as a wide forward.”
