CREATING CHANCES
"When you create chances like that against a team like Juventus, it shows me
that we can still have a great season," added Prandelli.
Udinese, who face Barcelona in the Champions League on
Wednesday, suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to fifth-placed Livorno who continued
their excellent campaign.
An early own goal from Chris Obodo and a late Cristiano Lucarelli strike
sealed victory for Roberto Donadoni's team.
Roma's frustrating season continued when they let a two-goal lead slip at
lowly Lecce before ending with a 2-2 draw.
Contract rebel Antonio Cassano scored his first goal of the season with a
delicate chip and Roma doubled their lead just before the break when Cesare
Bovo's shot took a slight deflection off Shabani Nonda.
Giuseppe Cozzolino brought the home side back into the game six minutes into
the second period and shortly afterwards Lecce were level when Mirko Vucinic
scored from the penalty spot after being brought down by Romanian defender
Cristian Chivu.
Both teams went close to winners near the end with Lecce's Axel Konan hitting
the post and Bovo crashing a drive against the cross-bar.
