AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho was relieved after their 3-1 win against Udinese.

Roma won 3-1, with the score locked at 1-1 before Paulo Dybala and Stephan El Shaawary struck.

On El Shaarawy's goal, Mourinho said, I feel like we're trying to break records for goals scored in the final minutes. We also seem to prefer scoring goals when it is under the Curva Sud.

I celebrated because it was the goal that finished the game. With those substitutions, we lost defensive intensity and I did not feel terribly secure. When I realised that goal killed off the match, I relaxed and hugged a child near the bench. I had to hug the first person I saw, fortunately it wasn't a policeman or something.

We had got a little unbalanced with Azmoun and Paulo together. Azmoun is a profile I love, but he is missing something in his defensive capabilities to be a real Mourinho player. Dybala is not that disciplined defensively either, so you can manage with one like that, but not two."
