Defender Napoli Kalidou Coulibaly commented on the defeat of his team in the championship race with Juventus.
After the victory in the face-to-face meeting over the "old lady" (1: 0) Napoli returned to the fight for the Scudetto, but already in the next round almost lost the chances for the championship.
While Juventus at the last minute beat Inter with a score of 3: 2, the Neapolitans lost 0-3 Fiorentina.
The defender of the "Parthenopia" Kalidou Coulibaly, who became the author of the victorious ball and the hero of the match against Juventus, led his team in a duel against the "violets", earning a red card. According to Kalida, psychology has become decisive in the failure of his room.
"The defeat of Fiorentina was the key. Perhaps Maurizio Sarri is right that we lost the match back in the locker room when we learned the result of the Inter-Juve match. At the subconscious level, we surrendered ".
"I did not watch Juventus' match, but it was difficult to play right after it. We can only blame ourselves, but the victory of the "old lady" has dealt us a serious blow. Something happened in our heads, and we could not properly respond to this in a match with Fiorentina ".
"Next season we have to do even more to win the Scudetto. We are going to continue to grow to win the title. This city needs it. We want to go down in history, "said Coulibaly.
Earlier it was reported that Kalida could leave Napoli if Sarri left the team.
