The Uruguayan striker reiterated that the team was to blame for their draw against Udinese, and remarked that they should have been more clinical at the Friulani.
Both teams came into matchday 28 of the Serie on the back of getting knocked out of their respective European competitions.
Napoli exited the Champions League after a remarkable turnaround by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 Alkmaar in the Europa League.
As a result there were not many complaints suggesting that any of the third place contenders of the Serie A had a particular advantage going into the match. The two sides would have been equally weary, however
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003’s match did go into extra-time.
Udinese felt destined for victory after goals from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Di-Natale-c6306 helped the Bianconeri take a two goal lead into the match. Francesco Guidolin would have felt his side would be taking
the three points from the match to help their third place credentials.
However, the Uruguayan Cavani came to the rescue of the Partenopei outfit scoring twice within 5 minutes to help secure the draw. While giving his analysis on the match, the Azzurri attacker felt that there
were errors made during the match which they should not have committed, further stating:
“It is a valuable point that we earned here, even if we should’ve had the attitude of the final minutes right from the start. It was our fault the game was going badly and we needed to take a different approach
to this match. We are fighting for third place and now have to keep pushing all the way. We cannot give up.”
Before scoring his brace, Cavani had seen his penalty saved by the Udinese shot stopper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Samir-Handanovic-c32356. The save shed light on the poor scoring record of Cavani from the spot, and the striker gave his
justification by stating:
“If I tried to lift the penalty, then Handanovic would’ve got it anyway. That’s what goalkeepers are there for and compliments to him for realising that’s what I wanted to do.”
Napoli have a tricky tie on match day 29 of the Serie A against Catania, and Cavani would be hopeful of continuing his hot streak against Montella’s side.
