Cagliari coach Claudio Ranieri was pleased with their Coppa Italia win at Udinese.

Cagliari won 2-1 at the Zebrette on Wednesday night.

Ranieri later said: "I was looking at my team, without thinking about Udinese, I made those who normally stay on the bench or those who are recovering from injuries play like Cioffi.

"I can't blame these guys for anything, but now beyond training I was able see what they are capable of doing on the pitch, I asked them to show me what they are capable of.

"I must say that I am satisfied, we created and shot a lot, reacting after the goal once again."
