Atalanta tonight won a real match against a real team. We were good at being at their level. The team that I lined up tonight will get us back on track immediately, achieving results in the matches, because they had a serious, important behavior.
Luciano Spalletti, the Napoli coach, doesn’t look for excuses. And in Press conference reiterates that talking about the many absent would be disrespectful to the boys who took to the field tonight.
Talking about the absent would be disrespectful towards the boys who took the field this evening. It is clear that if during the match Lobotka, who had taken the ball in his hand, also gets hurt… As Eduardo De Filippo said «Being superstitious is ignorant, not being superstitious brings bad luck“
The regrets, for Spalletti, are the failed scoring chances at the end.
More coldness would be needed, especially in interpreting some situations. We went three or four times very close to breaking even. Even when with Petagna, posted by Zielinski, we could go in front of the goalkeeper. Andrea hesitated for a moment, he had the right advantage. Those are the things that crush you. But it remains that with this attitude we will take away the satisfactions
The regret is not having repaid Maradona’s enthusiasm with the result.
Little must be told to the Napoli audience. The fans manage to achieve what is the attitude of those who take the field. In this respect we are very calm here, we are only sorry not to have repaid the enthusiasm that the stadium has managed to transfer the result. I can assure you that the boys’ behavior is right and if we have fans left, we will get great satisfaction. As early as Thursday we will need their support. They will be there as they always have been. We want to pay them back.
