After the goalless draw against Juventus at the Stadium, Matteo Politano commented on Napoli's performance, highlighting some positive aspects and the need to improve in attack. "As the coach said, we could have done better in attack, especially in the first half. We knew that Juventus is a strong team, especially at home, where they have a lot of possession.", declared the Neapolitan striker to DAZN microphones.
"We're still happy not to have conceded a goal and to have shown that Napoli can also suffer." Politano also spoke about his most dangerous chance, a free kick that involved the Juventus goalkeeper: "I kicked hard towards the far post, knowing that Juventus were defending very deep.
There was a deflection and I think Di Gregorio made an extraordinary save."
