Udinese crisis now over, declares Marino

Udinese coach Pasquale Marino says their crisis is over after their 2-2 draw with Napoli.

"This is a result that takes us out of the crisis," smiled Coach Marino. "We are satisfied with the reaction in today's performance.

"I think it gives us a sense of consistency following on from what we did on Wednesday against Juventus."

Napoli were 2-0 up, but Antonio Di Natale's penalty and a stunning Fabio Quagliarella volley completed the comeback before half-time.

"Napoli are not in crisis, as they did well against Roma and Fiorentina, but form always goes in cycles. We knew we were facing a team in good shape and that means our result is worth even more.

"We too are getting back on track, as we have recovered important players and their long-term absence is what made my decisions difficult."
