Baroni: ‘Too much Napoli to handle’

Marco Baroni admits Benevento “were just never on the pitch, but there was too much Napoli for us to deal with” after a 6-0 defeat.

The Streghe were decimated by injuries and without a single point yet this season, but 4-0 down by half-time.

“We were just never on the pitch. There was too much Napoli for us to deal with,” the Coach – a former Napoli star – told Rai Sport.

“We were just never on the pitch. There was too much Napoli for us to deal with,” the Coach – a former Napoli star – told Rai Sport.

“We conceded straight away and the lads got scared. This defeat must teach us that we have to stay in the game with the right mentality, even after going behind.

“Now we’ve got to rebuild from our previous performances and forget this setback straight away.

“This squad was only completed recently with the close of the transfer window and it’ll take a while to get the group gelled. We’ve got to think back to our performances before this one.”
