SPALLETTI: "TO WIN THESE MATCHES HAS A WONDERFUL TASTE"
“To win these matches has a wonderful taste,” said the Nerazzurri Coach Luciano Spalletti after the match. “This win gives us enthusiasm but we must be realistic and keep working in the right way. I see that these players are serious, they’re professionals and they know how to do what is asked of them. If everyone is pushing in the same direction, it’s easier to get results. We’ve stockpiled a lot of points now which will help for the future and we want to push for as many points as possible. We do know however that we still need to develop further.”
"Icardi? Mauro was great. He was fundamental, he helped the team as he went to recover the ball, lessening the burden on his teammates. Then, he made no mistakes in attacking space in the box or with his finishing. He’s a strong player, he’s complete for his age and he takes on great responsibility.”
“Napoli? Like tonight, the team will take to the pitch in the knowledge that they’re up against a great opponent but aware that they have certain requirements as they wear this shirt. A message has to be sent tonight to all of the fans who were in attendance and who want to be near to us. We’ll go there to play but Napoli are a great side and Sarri is doing a brilliant job.”
