Napoli winger Adam Ounas couldn’t celebrate his first goal for the club, as “it coincided with a defeat” to RB Leipzig.

His angled drive had given them the lead in the Europa League Round of 32 clash, but ended up losing 3-1.

“It’s difficult for those who don’t get to play very much to maintain match fitness and form. It’s tough on a purely physical level to maintain that form,” Ounas told Sky Sport Italia.

“It’s difficult for those who don’t get to play very much to maintain match fitness and form. It’s tough on a purely physical level to maintain that form,” Ounas told Sky Sport Italia.

“I must continue working in training to convince the Coach that I deserve more playing time. It’s disappointing that my first goal in a Napoli jersey coincided with a defeat, as it effectively became meaningless.

“Unfortunately, we lost tonight, so now we have to focus on Serie A and getting the next three points.”
