to be a tight affair.
Mazzarri believes that his team played extremely well on the night, but they were made to pay for their wastefulness in front of the goal. He believes that it was not the first time that his team squandered so many goal-scoring
opportunities, as it has been the tale of the season for them.
While talking to the reporters, Mazzarri said:
“We had our chances in the first half too, while after the break we made mistakes that we cannot afford, wasted too many goals and at the end were punished. We wasted an opportunity, which is not the first time it has happened
this season, as we have dropped points along the way.”
The manager also explained Edinson Cavani’s substitution in the middle stages of the second-half, and insists that the Uruguayan looked tired, so he did not want to risk him.
“Edinson Cavani seemed tired, so I replaced him with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Camilo-c8287 Zuniga has incredible
talent, but he was terrible in the first half.”
The former Sampdoria boss is still optimistic about ending the season on a high, but he has urged his team to focus on their own performances rather than their rivals’.
Napoli will play Palermo, Bologna and Siena in their remaining matches of the season respectively. They will also be hoping that their major rivals drop points in their respective matches remaining in the season.
Their next outing will be at home to Palermo on Tuesday, May 1st.
