Napoli goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic confirmed his determination after the 4-1 victory over Monza, which strengthened the club's position on matchday 9 of Serie A. In the Sky press conference, the hero of Sao Paulo underlined the importance of saves, but also highlighted how playing with the feet is an added value. “The first objective is to save, but if you can play with your feet it's an extra,” he said, referring to the complex team work that allowed Napoli to achieve the victory.
Milinkovic-Savic then reiterated the need to approach every match with the same mentality, especially in view of the upcoming challenges. “I say match by match because we have two difficult matches and we have to collect points,” he explained. The goalkeeper acknowledged that although the victory is a good sign, the enthusiasm must be maintained and passed on to teammates to continue progressing.
Napoli, who are currently in first position, have shown that they are capable of managing complex situations thanks to their defensive solidity and ability to exploit scoring opportunities. The victory against Monza was particularly significant as it confirmed the club's ability to transform its strengths into concrete results, especially in a championship where competitiveness is high and the subsequent challenges promise to be equally challenging.
With the season still underway, Napoli must now focus on the next matches, where the pressure will be greater. The goalkeeper expressed confidence in the team, but also underlined that success will depend on the ability to maintain the level of performance and capitalize on every opportunity. The club, with its solid structure and a calendar that includes important challenges, is ready to continue the race for the title, but with the awareness that each match is a new chapter to be written.
