Makowski: ‘Napoli hardly Madrid’

Legia Warsaw defender Rafal Makowski mocked Europa League opponents Napoli. “They’re hardly Real Madrid…”

This game kicks off on Thursday at 20.05 UK time (19.05 GMT) in Poland, but there was already fighting talk in the Press conference.

“Are we afraid of Napoli? Let’s not go overboard, they’re hardly Real Madrid…” was the 19-year-old’s answer.

“We intend to do our best and we treat this match as a celebration. We can do like BATE Borisov did with Roma in the Champions League.”
