The match at the Stadio San Paolo was decided by a late Lorenzo Insigne strike, upsetting last season’s Champions League Finalists.
According to CalcioNapoli24, Coach Ancelotti had a special routine to fire up his men in the locker room.
Before kick-off, he showed the team a series of headlines and television clips that outlined how Napoli were massive underdogs and probably had no chance of getting a result.
At this point, Ancelotti turned to the players and said: “So what do you say? Shall we go and give Liverpool a nice surprise?”
Napoli are currently the only unbeaten side in their Champions League group, on four points ahead of Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain on three.
