Buongiorno on Napoli differences with Champions League commitments

“We must try to take it one game at a time, and this is a big opportunity, so we will give our all,” Buongiorno told DAZN.

Napoli won the Scudetto last term, but had the advantage of not being in UEFA competition and suffering an early Coppa Italia exit.

With all that in mind, how are they experiencing the differences of working with Antonio Conte when Europe is also a factor?

“There are many videos to watch, as we have to lower the physical training intensity when there are two matches, so we focus more on the tactical aspects.”

It is the first time they’ve had that midweek test, losing 2-0 to Manchester City in the Champions League.

Pisa were promoted to Serie A for the first time in over 30 years, but are still without a win so far this season, managing one point from three rounds.

“We must defend well, as Napoli have quality all over the pitch, but also have the courage to try something on the ball, press them off it, and play our game,” Aebischer told DAZN.

“I think we’ve had good performances so far, we are lacking something in the finish, but we created the chances. We also showed against Atalanta and Roma that we can defend well, but need to score more goals.”
