“Today I speak as a fan, as one of the millions of Neapolitans in love with the blue shirt,” De Magistris told reporters.
“Last night in Turin we suffered continuous wrongs, never-ending, in a game punctuated and conditioned by refereeing mistakes, and all the while with shameful chants against our city.
“Today I’m just one of the angry fans because of the damage inflicted by penalties given and not given.
“To add insult to injury there’s the opinion makers who were somehow watching another match with a story which doesn’t exist.
“It’s always more difficult for us Neapolitans, but we wait for two important games with Roma and Real Madrid.
“Come on lads, we have to be stronger than those who insult us, wish us harm and say bad things. We defend the city and go forward to victory, forza Napoli!”
