I think many people underestimate Catania around here. They're a very decent team, and I think they haven't been defeated at home in 2010 or something like that?
Catania caused us problems in the beginning; then we took complete control of the match for the end of the first half and the beginning of the second and that was it. We had a 3-1 lead and just sat back. I don't know why people are complaining.
That's exactly how you win games against these teams. When you're up by 2 goals, you don't go all out attacking for another goal while exposing your defense. You protect the lead and play conservative.
The only reason we didn't look too 'pretty' for long stretches of the game was because we coincidentally played our best football in a very small period of time and got the job done.
All in all, good win that gives us some breathing space.
