Antonio Cassano feels that Napoli have ‘made little or no mistakes’ since Christmas, being ‘the anti-Inter’ in the title race.

The Partenopei rose to the top of the Serie A table yesterday after a last minute win over Lazio. They’re tied on points with Milan and two points ahead of the Nerazzurri, who suffered a frustrating 0-0 draw with Genoa on Friday.

Speaking on BoboTV, Cassano gave his thoughts on Napoli and the title race now.

“Napoli are the anti-Inter team, since after Christmas they have made little or no mistakes, they have convinced me even more than the Nerazzurri.

“They’ve had their ups and downs, which are normal, but at the moment as a footballing proposition they’re the one I enjoy watching the most. I think Inter should be afraid of them.”

The pressure is on for Napoli now as they face joint-top Milan at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Sunday evening. A win further consolidates their spot at the top, whilst a loss risks seeing them drop behind in the title race. With Inter two points behind the pair, they need to continually put in consistent performances in order to keep up.

The Nerazzurri face bottom place Salernitana at home on the weekend, but first they’ll face the Rossoneri in a Coppa Italia semi-final derby, so they’ll have to rotate the squad a little in order to conserve energy.

5 thought on “Cassano: ‘Napoli are the anti-Inter’”
  1. I really do not understand why this guy has been anti Milan since his move to inter. He has been an inter fan all his life which would be understandable but one would expect some kind of sentiment, respect and appreciation towards AC Milan after all the club did for him, a club and fans who stood by him and loved him even when his own heart gave up on him… There has never been a show of appreciation from him.. Not once!

  2. Whoever wins the next match is the anti whatever, when Milan wins they are anti inter, when jive wins they are anti inter, and even the inter themselves are not winning, there are four teams within the range and you naming every team as anti of one because they have Messj and Ronaldo in their team right? Make no sense
