“Genoa put in a good performance, but Napoli deserve compliments, as winning games like this means you are a top side.”
Napoli ended the game with 10 men, but Genoa repeatedly complained to the referee.
“Was there a penalty on Luca Toni? He is certainly being held, but I don't think so,” confessed Ballardini.
“However, it was not a foul from Mimmo Criscito on Cristian Maggio for the free kick that led to the goal. There was also a Maggio handling offence in the box.”
Hamsik was allowed essentially a free header on Walter Gargano's set play for the winner.
“Miguel Veloso was meant to be marking Hamsik,” revealed the tactician.
