Walter Mazzarri, coach of Napoli, spoke to DAZN microphones at the end of the match lost 1-0 against Milan at San Siro: “Milan pressed very hard in the first half, then showed signs of decline. In the second half we reacted positively, even if we could have done even better.
The change of formation? It wasn't decisive for the progress of the match."
“In preparation we had concentrated on Hernandez's insertions inside, but we made a mistake that compromised the result - he added -. At this stage we have had to deal with numerous injuries, but we are recovering important players.

We will fight until the end for the goal of fourth place."
