Luca Gotti felt Udinese only had themselves to blame for not taking all three points against Verona, after squandering a number of chances in the first half.

“I'm upset about the result because we really wanted to win this one,” the boss. “Winning today would have built on our last three draws. We had after a very good first half, took the lead and had seven or eight chances to double it, but we've ended up paying for it. 
 
“Before the game [Isaac] Success said he thought he could manage 30 minutes. Those 30 minutes became 60 – not all with the same intensity and energy but we saw signs of what he can do.
 
“Towards the end Verona were trying to keep the ball and we had lots of space to attack them in one-on-ones, so I wanted players in those areas who could exploit those opportunities and I thought but Molina was one of them.
 
“I thought we'd have [Ignacio] Pussetto available for this one but. We'll see where he's at over the coming days and take a decision.”
