Torino No2 Frustalupi happy to deliver win to Mazzarri

Torino assistant coach Nicolo Frustalupi was delighted with victory over Udinese.

Nicolas N'Koudou and Andrea Belotti struck in the 2-0 win with coach Walter Mazzarri in the stands.

"We prepare the games together during the week and I simply did what I always do every Sunday," Frustalupi told Rai Sport.

“My job is to carry on Mazzarri's ideas of football and put them into action. Having three strikers will inevitably mean running a few risks at the back, but it's about balance. Iago Falque and M'Baye Niang obviously have to make sacrifices.

“I think we put in a good performance. We were a little tense at the start and allowed Udinese some chances, but they're in such good shape it was inevitable they'd have some opportunities.

Udinese had chances, but in the end I think we deserved this victory."
