Udinese coach Lele Cioffi praised matchwinner Lautaro Giannetti after Monday's win at Juventus.
The Zebrette stunned Juve 1-0 in Turin.
Cioffi said, “We went through difficult moments, but the lads never gave up, leaving everything on the pitch. We fought hard against a team of champions. It was key to read moments well. We were strong and lucky to get the best result."
On Giannetti, he added: “He is a silent leader. He doesn't speak much, but he hits hard. He has brought serenity inside the dressing room, which is something we lacked.
“We didn't accept what the numbers said and we continued working hard with determination. We are pretty balanced now and we are closer to our target, even if it's not over yet."
