DBasia.news – Napoli 3-2 victory at home to Red Bull Salzburg determined by Lorenzo Insigne on Matchday III Champions League, Thursday (10/24) early morning Western Indonesian Time.
Not without reason Lorenzo Insigne was so emotional and celebrated that goal with Carlo Ancelotti. Because the goal was to prove the coach’s words before the match.
In a match that took place at the Red Bull Arena Stadium, Lorenzo Insigne did not appear as a starter. He only entered in the 65th minute to replace Hirving Lozano. It was as promised by the coach who made sure he played in the match.
“I told him before the match, ‘You will play and determine the outcome of the match. However, I didn’t know you would play 10, 20 or 30 minutes.’ I am not a magician, but I really said that to him,” explained Carlo Ancelotti after the match as quoted by Tuttomercatoweb.
Lorenzo Insigne was no longer bothered by the decision of the former Chelsea coach to back him up. The most important thing for the Italian national team player is to make a positive contribution each time given confidence and bring the team to victory.
“It’s no problem for me to start the match on the bench. “The whole team needs a victory like this,” the 28-year-old player was quoted as saying on the official UEFA website.
Regarding the hard-won victory at home to RB Salzburg, the attacker did not want to be lulled. He reminded Carlo Ancelotti’s team did not ensure qualification for the Champions League knockout phase. Napoli must remain cautious to play the remaining three matches in the group phase.
“We are happy about the results tonight and we should celebrate that. However, we must stay focused looking at the matches ahead,” said Lorenzo Insigne again.
