Napoli head coach Rafa Benitez talked to RAI after the win against Inter: “It is usually very hard to play right after being undeservedly knocked out of the Champions League. We played against a very strong team, something which probably helped us regain motivation. I have several good offensive players, our potential in attack is good. Was this game personal for me? No, I have a lot of good friends in the city of Milan. This was a game against a team that is behind is in the league and it was important to prolong the distance between us I want to transmit continuity and I have my project, we take it slow to go a long way. For me football doesn’t change every week, we do not only work on our defense but on our pressing of the opponent all over the pitch. Did I introduce a third midfielder in order to get us a goal? The intention was to give us more pressure in the middle of the pitch since Higuaín was having some difficulties. Then I wanted to exploit Callejóns speed and it worked out well. Nagatomo’s goal? We shouldn’t have had two players marking the same opponent, the back four should have done that part better, a winger should never be able to get that much space”.
