Salvatore Aronica confident http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 hoodoo: Serie A news
Napoli defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Salvatore-Aronica-c32276, believes that his team can end Inter Milan hoodoo in their upcoming meeting with the former Italian Champions.
The Nerazzurri will take on Walter Mazzarri’s men in a crunch Serie A encounter at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on Saturday, October 1st, 2011. Napoli have always struggled against Inter Milan and have not won a single
time in their last five head to head meetings with them.
It has been almost 17 years since they defeated the Nerazzurri at San Siro but Aronica believes that it is a perfect time to end this hoodoo. The experienced defender added that his team has broken several taboos of late and he
is confident they can end Inter’s dominance as well.
The former Juventus defender praised the opposition but believes that his side has improved a lot recently and can clinch a victory.
While talking to the reporters Aronica said, “In these last few years we have broken many taboos and now is the perfect time to destroy this one too. Inter are very strong and we don’t have a great tradition at San Siro, but hope
to put an end to these negative statistics.”
The defender added that UEFA Champions League has improved the performances of his side and they do not fear facing any team now. The 33-year-old is delighted with the start to the season and believes that they must look to continue
to carry the momentum.
“Compared to last season, we are more aware of our own strength and the Champions League games also helped us to cancel certain fears. We’re having a great start to the campaign and hope to continue like this. The club signed quality
players and we have the possibility of going all the way in every tournament.”
The former Reggina defender is a serious doubt for the game after picking up an injury in his team’s 2-0 win over Villarreal recently. Napoli are currently placed 4th on the league table, while Inter are on the 16th
spot.
