Unfortunately, the intensity we showed cost us dearly in the second half, where we dropped back too much instead of staying high and pressing. Napoli It's full of quality and we lacked a bit of experience at times."

The French coach prefers to look to the future with confidence: “We played with intensity and courage: this defeat will make us grow.” Vieira then praised the young rossoblù protagonists, in particular Ekhator, author of the goal that froze Maradona: "I chose Ellertsson on the left for his speed and ability to handle one-on-one situations. Ekhator has shown his qualities: he needs to play and make mistakes to grow. Fini and Venturino on the bench also demonstrate that the Genoa Academy is working well with young players."

It's a shame we lost, but I think the coach is right. The young players are improving, even if they sometimes lack experience. Let's hope the next match is better for us and brings us luck.
