Stefano Pioli acknowledges Napoli “have lost sharpness lately, but I want to give credit for the result” to Fiorentina after their draw.

“We had a good game, the forwards did fine work and Napoli made us run a lot, but we went beyond the result and performance. The important thing is that Fiorentina are here,” the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.

“We changed a great deal over the summer and so many of our players are young. We are usually more ambitious compared to the approach we took today, but we wanted to run into space more.

“It was difficult to surprise Napoli, but they really felt the absence of Lorenzo Insigne, as he can resolve a game by taking men on. They have lost sharpness in recent weeks, but I want to give credit for the result to my players.

“This is an important step forward for us.”
