The match between Napoli and Lecce, which ended in a draw, marked the Azzurri's failure to qualify for European competitions for the first time in 14 years. A historic failure that left a bitter taste in the mouth even for the writer and Neapolitan fan Maurizio De Giovanni.
Deeply disappointed by Napoli's season, which a year ago was crowned champion of Italy, De Giovanni shared his thoughts and his resentment in a post on Facebook: “Dignity. Pride.
Professionalism. Respect.
Gratitude. None of that.
Whatever the reason, I don’t care,” the message.
“Whatever the justification, I don't care. – continues the writer –You are not worthy of our history, not even of those who were relegated because at least they cried.
The only good thing you did was take off your shirt.” Napoli’s season, marked by too many lows, continues to be the subject of debate among fans and critics.
