Serie A: Naples must "not miss the final sprint", says Spalletti

Naples, which can mathematically ensure the title of Italian champion on Sunday, depending on the result of Lazio Rome (2nd), must “not miss the final sprint”, advocated its coach Luciano Spalletti on Saturday.

“We don't want to miss the final sprint but it doesn't just depend on us. I know perfectly well that we have an important match, but also that it may not be decisive, we remain calm, "said the coach at a press conference on the eve of the reception of Salernitana, during the 32nd day. of Serie A.

To mathematically ensure the scudetto, six days from the end, Naples must first hope that Lazio, 2nd at 17 points, does not win on the ground of Inter Milan (12:30 p.m.) then will have to beat its neighbor from Campania (3:00 p.m.) in its Diego Maradona stadium. The Napoli match was originally scheduled for Saturday but was postponed for 24 hours at the request of the authorities in order to better manage public order in the event of a party.

“There are things that do not depend on us, we adapt. We will be ready to play tomorrow (Sunday) as we would have been ready to play today (Saturday), with all our strength, even that which we no longer have,” said Spalletti. Salernitana president Danilo Iervolino regretted not having been consulted on the postponement, believing that it had disrupted the preparation of his team, which remains on eight matches without defeat in the league.

Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri, for his part, wielded irony by estimating to the press that "the table has been prepared for the party" with the idea "that we will not achieve a result against the Inter”. "Naples will party anyway, but hopefully as late as possible," added the former Napoli coach (2015-18). “We did not entrust our championship to the prefect or to fate, but to our idea of ​​play and the desire to make people happy who, like the other evening, are waiting for us impatiently for hours only to see our game pass. because. We also had to modify our program for the week,” replied Luciano Spalletti. Hundreds of supporters gathered outside the club's training center on Saturday morning to welcome the team to their pre-match training, according to media reports.
