Carlo Ancelotti says Napoli are a very competitive team

Carlo Ancelotti hailed his team in wake of Napoli’s 1-0 victory over Cagliari in the Serie A on Sunday. Napoli kept themselves within striking distance of league leaders Juventus who are eight points clear at the top of the standings.

Napoli was the better team for large quarters of the game but Ancelotti’s team had to wait till the 91st minute to break the deadlock, thanks to a free-kick from Arkadiusz Milik. Here is what Ancelotti said to Calciomercato after the game-

“Milik free-kick? Well if there is a foul on the right side it is either Milik or Mario Rui who can take it whereas Mertens and Insigne would take it if the foul is on the opposite side. Milik? Well, he is a very serious guy who always trains hard and gives it his all. Liverpool? It was a very difficult result to accept but we responded in the right way. Mertens and Insigne? Well, we struggled in the first half since they weren’t there so we had to adapt. I didn’t play them since I wanted to keep them fresh. Team? Well, we are a very competitive team. We were very competitive in the Champions League and we now hope to do well in the Europa league. EL final against Chelsea? It would be a dream for Napoli. We know that we are going to have to work hard but we have faith. Let’s keep on going like this…”.
