Udinese...

Fiorentina" "Palermo played better than us and only Brkic's valiances (???) kept us alive"

The 90th-minute draw against Palermo is as important as a win for Udinese, reduced (“which were left or which were reduced to”?) to ten men in the last 30 minutes of a thrilling match: "I am very glad of the score - comments the coach, Francesco Guidolin -. I might say we had faith until the end, but it would be obvious. I am more happy (“happier”?) with the score than with the performance. Palermo played better than us and Brkic's valiances (???) kept us alive".

What were you afraid of before this match?

"After two consecutive wins I saw a bit of presumption and self-contentment. Palermo had had (you could just say: “Had two…”) two undeserved defeats from Inter and Juventus. We can lose all the times (“all the time”?) if we play like this. Now the emergency is over, and we need to find the balance and fight tooth and nails (“tooth and nail”?)  every Sunday. Many players who are back from the infirmary still need to find the right balance yet".

How did you like Muriel?

"He made a good start and burned all his petrol (what is he, a Formula 1 race car?) at once. He was eager to play".

How did you judge Heurtaux's expulsion?

"The referee's decision is law" (“is the law”?).  How did you cope with his absence?  "We played with 4-3-2. The first part of the second half, as long as we were 11 of us, was our best part".

Now the away game in Bergamo to end 2012.

"Actually, there is another Coppa Italia match againsr (“against”?) Fiorentina. It will be our 26th match so far. We need to rely on our last strengths".

What is your target now?

"Still the same: scoring 40 points. We still need 17 (“points”?) to avoid relegation".
