Napoli Rewarded By God Of Football – Gattuso
Posted by E.L.E.X on June 18 2020 under Sports
Gennaro Gattuso felt Napoli’s hard work was rewarded by a “God of football” as they defeated Juventus to win the Coppa Italia.
Napoli came out on top in Wednesday’s penalty shootout after a dismal 0-0 draw, with Paulo Dybala and Danilo failing from the spot in a 4-2 reverse.
The Partenopei deserved their success after seeing some big opportunities come and go, largely thanks to the brilliance of veteran Juve goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
It represents a first major triumph for Gattuso as a coach, and he told Rai Sport: “Whoever does this job must have respect for it.
“We are lucky. This is why I get angry; there must be passion, respect, seriousness. Then there is a God of football who rewards you when you work well.”
In the moments after Napoli’s success, Gattuso’s mind turned towards his sister, Francesca, who passed away earlier this month following a battle with cancer.“The world of football has given me more than I deserved,” he said. “But you always think of your family first. In life, when what has happened happens to you, you don’t digest it.”
The coach is now keen to see Napoli kick on in the closing weeks of the season in Serie A, in which they sit sixth, nine points behind fourth-placed Atalanta.
“We have a duty to play these last 12 games with respect,” Gattuso added. “We must not think about giving up.”
