Di Matteo praises resilient Dons
Rune Lange put Pools in front before Ali Gerba's brace and a Dean Lewington header sealed a third successive victory for Di Matteo's men, who closed the gap on leaders Leicester to nine points.[LNB]The Dons had not played in 10 days after their last scheduled match against Crewe was postponed, while the bad weather also prevented them from enjoying a full week's training.[LNB]And Di Matteo said: "It was very hard for us to get into our rhythm in the first half but we knew before the game that would happen.[LNB]"We showed our true strength in the second half and we showed what we can do. We created enough chances to win the game and fortunately we got the ball into the net.[LNB]"I have got a nice headache for the next game now after Ali Gerba came in and did very well for the team and it is important that the squad knows everybody is important and we need everybody."[LNB][LNB]
