Antonio Di Natale scores twice to help Udinese get the better of high-flying Fiorentina 3-1 at home in Serie A.

Udinese have come from behind to defeat Fiorentina 3-1 at home in Serie A.

The Viola went ahead on 20 minutes under chaotic circumstances as Gonzalo Rodriguez's header from a Borja Valero free kick came off the underside of the crossbar to strike Zeljko Brkic's head and go into the net.

Brkic had to be substituted with five minutes of first-half action remaining with a broken finger following a clash with Juan Cuadrado.

The home side levelled in first-half injury time through an Antonio Di Natale penalty.

Valero's challenge on Maurizio Domizzi inside the Fiorentina area was deemed to be a foul by the referee, and Di Natale made no mistake from 12 yards.

The Italian scored his second goal of the afternoon midway through the second half when he latched on to Andrea Lazzari's ball from over the top to volley past Neto.

Udinese's comeback was complete moments later on 67 minutes, Luis Muriel finding the target from distance thanks to a howler from Neto.
