Napoli boss Benitez frustrated with Udinese defeat

Napoli boss Rafa Benitez was left frustrated with their 1-0 defeat to Udinese.

Danilo grabbed the winner for Udinese midway through the second-half.

"This game was under control, then because of a soft challenge in the box we lost it," Benitez told Sky Sport Italia.

"Up until that moment, Rafael didn't have a save to make. It's a shame, as this match could've been won with quality, instead it was the other way round.

"In any case, we saw the team performance was there, as we created chances and also hit the woodwork. I didn't see any Udinese opportunities today and we had the game under control, 100 per cent. We lacked determination in attack."
