An Antonio Di Natale double wasn’t enough for Udinese as they lost 3-2 to Dinamo Moscow this afternoon.

Andrea Stramaccioni went with a fairly attacking line-up against the Russian outfit, but paid for that in the first half as Christian Noboa and Aleksey Ionov gave them the lead.

Di Natale netted on the half hour mark to pull one back, but Stan Cherchesov’s men retained their two-goal advantage before the break as Kevin Kuranyi pounced.

The Zebrette’s veteran striker scored on 66 minutes to give the Friuli team some hope, but it wasn’t enough.

Udinese: Brkic; Vague, Belmonte, Bubnjic; Widmer, Allan, Riera, Pasquale; Fernandes; Muriel, Di Natale
