Ambrosino: For Neapolitans, playing here is a proud moment, boss values all | OneFootball

Napoli wins against Cagliari in the match valid for the Coppa Italia Round of 16. The Azzurri, at the Maradona, defeat Pisacane’s men after a long penalty shootout, in which Luvumbo’s miss, hypnotized by Milinkovic from the spot, proved decisive. In the quarter-finals, the Azzurri will face the winner between Fiorentina and Como, who will play in January.

Napoli-Cagliari, Ambrosino’s words in the post-match press conference

“We are very happy with the match, not only for our performance but also for advancing to the next round. Both we and the coach really cared about this. We managed to do it even though it was tough. Antonio (Vergara) and I played a good game.”

On the meaning of playing at the Maradona as a Neapolitan

“For us Neapolitans, playing at the Maradona is something extra. I am very happy and I hope that, with the commitment I will put in, there will be more opportunities.”

The importance of being at Napoli

“Certainly, being here for us younger, less experienced players is a source of pride. Being with people and a coach like this can only be a pleasure for us.”

On tonight’s role

“Regardless of where the coach puts me, or will put me, I will always try to give my best.”

The atmosphere in the locker room

“The coach considers everyone. I, like Vergara, will always give everything in training. Then it will always be up to the coach to decide who plays on the field.”
