The Azzurri boss delighted to advance to the semi-finals of Coppa Italia, and urges fans to back Gokhan Inler.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan for their complaints regarding a late penalty appeal turned down against them, and believes that they should have had two men sent off.
The Partenopei side crushed Inter Milan by 2-0 in the quarter-final of Coppa Italia on Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Edinson Cavani’s brace sent the Azzurri in the semi-finals of the competition, where they will play Siena.
Inter manager, Claudio Ranieri, mentioned in his press conference after the match that his team should have been awarded a penalty after http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-Milito-c11166 was hauled down inside the box. Commenting on the remarks of the Nerazzurri boss,
Mazzarri insisted that he has lot of respect for the latter, but he must think that two of his men were lucky to remain on the pitch.
While talking to the reporters, Mazzarri said,
“Ranieri is a good Coach who I admire, but if he says that then he also has to remember they should’ve had two men sent off. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wesley-Sneijder-c36799 should’ve been given a red card for that horrible foul on Walter Gargano, while Cristian
Chivu deserved a second booking. I think if any team was penalised in this game, it was Napoli.”
The former Sampdoria boss insisted that Wesley Sneijder should have been sent off after his vicious foul on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristian-Chivu-c9519 should have seen a red card later in the game.
Mazzarri is delighted with the win and believes that it is a big achievement against an in-form, Inter Milan.
“Inter were in a great moment of form, which says a lot about what we achieved tonight,” continued Mazzarri.
The 50-year-old backed midfielder, Gokhan Inler, after he was recently jeered by the Napoli fans. The manager revealed that he talked to the supporters and urged them to cheer him rather greet him with boos.
“As for Gokhan Inler, I always spoke clearly with the fans and told them they have to cheer on a player rather than criticise him."
The Partenopei side will take on Genoa in their next game on Sunday, January 29, 2012.
