According to Tasnim news agency, Rudy Garcia, whose team under his leadership managed to win 1-0 at the home of Union Berlin last night (Tuesday) in the third round of the group stage of the European Champions League, after this meeting in an interview with “Sky Sports Italia” TV channel. He said: We were rarely bothered in this game, but at the same time, we were not that dangerous when attacking. We knew that despite what some people said, we did not win this game beforehand. When a team is going through a bad streak, it is statistically more likely to break the streak than to continue it.
He added: “There were many mistakes in the first half and we made a few wrong passes, which is bad because Union Berlin is a team that uses the mistakes of its rivals to organize a counterattack.” It was important to be patient and not play too much, and we moved the ball better in the second half. We scored a good goal, which was scored on Kwara’s pass and Raspadori’s move, which I would have liked to have scored on the first post.
In the end, the French head coach of Napoli noted: It was certainly not our best game, we lost the ball many times, but knowing that Union Berlin had three strong defenders, we could not cross the ball from the flanks and we had to circulate the ball. We would realize and maintain that these are all positive points. We know that we have to continue to play football until the final whistle.
With their second win, Napoli gained 6 points and is currently in the second place of the European Champions League Group C standings, 9 points behind Real Madrid.
