"He played 50 games a year ago."Tonight he wanted to create that difficulty to wake us up, but then he made an unbelievable save on the header [from Felipe]." And Allegri added that this was an important win against a good Udinese side."We did not play well in the first half," he told Mediaset Premium. "In the second half, after we made it 2-1, we could have scored again.  "We have suffered in the final stages, with even a little tiredness. Udinese put us on the ropes a little."To win the title, we have to win these matches."</blockquote>
