Roma coach Paulo Fonseca was delighted with their 1-0 defeat of Udinese.

Pedro hit a screamer to earn the points for the Giallorossi.

“We said it was going to be a difficult game and it was," Fonseca told DAZN.

“In the first half, we continually played in Udinese's final third, but they were dangerous when breaking on the counter. We weren't aggressive enough when we lost possession, but still created good situations.

“After the break, we managed to get the goal and the team remained united to bring home the result, which was the most important thing.

Roma are a very attack-minded team, but Udinese's style in the closing stages forced us to sit deeper. The team is playing well with Lorenzo Pellegrini in his current midfield position and we'll see in future whether he remains there."
