"It was a good game, considering we were missing important players, lost Pedro in the first half too and only played 72 hours ago," Sarri said after the game against Udinese.
“We went behind straight away and up until the 75th minute I think we deserved to win it. We struggled a little in the final 15 minutes, which was only natural in the circumstances. If we had a little more time at our disposal to work in training on the details.
"We wouldn't concede goals like that. We have to work on these small things, as now we play out from the back, we know when to slow down and speed up. I say my team do what we needed to do.
