The team from southern Italy beat Sassuolo 4-0 and established themselves as the leader of the Serie A tournament, with 32 points, six ahead of Milan, the last champion.
The cast of coach Spalletti put together -with the one of the day- a spectacular series of 13 successes in a row, including five matches in the Champions League, a competition in which they already advanced to the round of 16.
And it was precisely the coach of the current leader of the contest who referred to the figure of the eternal 10 and what it represents for an entity like the Neapolitan, which he clothed in glory back in the ’80s.
And to talk about Maradona, Spalletti cited Schopenhauer, a German philosopher who lived between 1788 and 1860, recognized as one of the most important in history.
“While talent achieves what others cannot achieve, genius achieves what others cannot imagine. That was the difference between Maradona and everyone else.”sentenced the DT of Napoli.
Around 45,000 light-blue fans filled the stadium named in honor of the Argentine legend, who was the subject of a tribute attended by some of his old teammates who made up the Scudetto-winning team in the 1987 and 1990 editions.
Salvatore Bagni, Fernando De Nápoli, Gianfranco Zola, Pietro Puzone, Enrico Zazzaro, Antonio Carannante and the then masseur Salvatore Carmando joined the celebration organized by Stafano Ceci, who was Maradona’s manager a few years ago.
“I had the great fortune to share those years with him and it was something beautiful and unforgettable. It was a great experience and learning,” Zola summed up, as reproduced by an Ansa cable.
“I think that time was one of the reasons why I became the player I was. I owe it to Diego and to this group”, completed the former striker and now coach.
The image of Diego that is still present in all football fans led the exit of the Napoli squad to the field of play as in those days in the sculpture dedicated to him by the plastic artist Domenico Sepe, located at the exit of the changing rooms.
“I thank you all for participating in this very special day,” said Ceci, addressing the children of the Sanitá neighborhood of Naples and the Parco Verde di Caivano present at the tribute.
