Dynamo Kiev – Napoli

.

Here are the declarations of SSC Napoli coach  Maurizio Sarri ahead of the Champions League Group Stage, Matchday 1, Dynamo Kiev vs Napoli to be played on Tuesday 13 September 2016 at the NSK Olimpiyskyi Stadium in Kiev, Ukraine at 20:45. Napoli are playing in Group B: Benfica (POR), Napoli (ITA), Dynamo Kyiv (UKR), and Beşiktaş (TUR).

The concept is clear for Sarri declaring, “I would like the team to express  its philosophy of the game in the Champions League.  Dynamo Kiev are a strong team physically and imparting an intense pace to match.”

Sarri is making his debut as a coach in the UEFA Champions League.  Sarry saying, “I consider this adventure in the Champions League is the sublimation of a long journey after 25 years coaching, like a circle that closes. But not for that I’m happy, indeed I want to continue to have fun, to get interested and win as much as you can in this path. ”

Surely, for Napoli the ideal scenario will be to start with a victory.  Sarri want the squad to impose their personalities and play with determination.
