UEFA Cup Round of 16 First Leg Result:
 
UDINESE 2- 0 ZENIT Goals by Fabio Quagliarella and Antonio Di Natale





Here is the official starting eleven formation for ZENIT St. Petersburg by coach Advocaat:

Zenit St. Petersburg: Viacheslav Malafeev, Dong-jin Kim, Anatoliy Tymoschuk, Ivica Krizanac, Radek Shirl, Igor Denisov, Konstatin Zurianov, Igor Semshov, Viktor Faitzulin, Miguel Danny, Pavel Pogrebniak.


Here is the official starting eleven formation for UDINESE by coach Pasquale Marino (Mezzini on the bench replacing Marino who is suspended):

UDINESE : Samir Handanovic, Christian Zapata, Felipe, Aleksander Lukovic, Giovanni Pasquale, Kwadwo Asamoach, Gokhan Inler, Gaetano D'Agostino, Antonio Di Natale, Fabio Quagliarella, and Simone Pepe.

Start waving your UDINESE flags because  Referee Martin Atkinson whistles the beginning of the match.....

Ooopsss in the 6th minute, Igor Denisov commits a foul on Udinese forward Simone Pepe and it's freekick for Udinese.  So closssseeeeeeeeeee  Gaetano D'Agostino with a left footed shot from the left side sends the pass to forward Fabio Quagliarella.  Uffa.... Quagliarella heads the ball but missed the target sending the ball over the bar. 

Hey, hey, hey,,, attention Udinese!!!!  In the 21st minute a good save from goalkeeper Samir Handanovic!!! Wow, guys, Viktor Faitzulin with a corner kick almost surprises Handanovic with a right footed shot... thanks God Handanovic saves!!!!

Forza ragazzi... come on!!!!


OH my gosh!!!! No, it can't be possible guys!!!!  In the 34th minute, a corner for Zenit.  Viktor Faitzulin  takes the corner and with a right footed shot hits the post and Anatoliy Tymoschuk with a header blasts Udinese goalkeeper Samir Handanovic!!!! 
Zenith St Petersburg 1 - 0 Udinese

Now, the situation is delicate because if Zenit scores another goal it will be a draw in the aggregate result.  We might go to extra time....

Come on UDINESEEEEEEEE... oh my gosh, I want to see the Tridente shining.  Forza Antonio Di Natale, Fabio Quagliarella and Simone Pepe.  Come on guys!!!!!

Oh no! 
Referee Martin Atkinson gives a yellow card to Simone Pepe for a foul on Miguel Danny in the  45th minute!  Freekick for Zenit

Taking the freekick is Anatoliy Tymoschuk sending a right footed cross finding Miguel Danny who missed the target.... uuuffaaa what a relief!  


Udinese must cool down.  We cannot lose concentration and the least thing Udinese need right now is to lose focus.  
Just at the end of the first half.  Now, Udinese must regroup and return stronger in the second half.
