Napoli striker Giacomo Raspadori was proud proving the matchwinner at Union Berlin.

Raspadori struck the only goal of Napoli's Champions League win.

He later said: "In the central areas of the pitch I feel more at ease, with my movements I am able to free up the spaces behind me. Today we were not able to be brilliant on a technical level, to play our match, but winning a match like this wasn't easy given the climate that was there."

Has anything changed after the defeat against Fiorentina?

"We looked each other in the eyes and said that we are a strong team. We have to play every match to win, the step was looking each other in the eyes knowing that we couldn't make any more mistakes."

How much is this first goal of the season in the Champions League worth?

"Playing here is a crazy emotion and doing it on a Champions League evening is fantastic, a unique emotion."

How did you find Garcia again after the break with Italy?

"I think I've found the same Garcia again, we continued to work as we did from the beginning. It took us a while to get into his dynamics but now we're on the right path. Especially due to the mental approach we achieved these two victories, we must continue with this desire to bring home victories."
