Napoli - Arsenal: Carlo Ancelotti speaks out on upcoming match against Gunners
Napoli head coach Carlo Ancelotti has spoken out on the upcoming Europa League quarterfinals second leg against Arsenal during the pre-match press-conference.
Italian side have lost the first leg at Emirates Stadium 2-0 after Aaron Ramsey and Lucas Torreira scored for Gunners.
Ancelotti was asked if Napoli are able to win with 3 goals if needed?
“Yes, it is possible” he answered. “Let’s not forget that the game lasts 90 minutes. This means that we are not forced to score in the first 30 or 15 minutes. We should keep the game open as much as possible. Right now we are the only Italian club in Europe and I hope we will continue to be there on Friday. We can do it”.
It was not the best performances for Napoli in the first leg, however, Lorenzo Insigne and Piotr Zielinski had their massive chances, which they failed to end up with a goal.
Ancelotti says they were not ready for Arsenal pressure in London: “There were some environmental problems and we were not able to get out of the pressure. But everything will be different tomorrow. We will play at our stadium, we will have the support of our fans, which is important. It is necessary to show a performance of high level.”
Napoli - Arsenal will start at 21:00 (CET)
