Spezia coach Thiago Motta hails shock win at Napoli: We deserved it

Spezia coach Thiago Motta was full of pride after their shock win at Napoli.

A first-half own goal by Juan Jesus saw Spezia earn the points.

"We did well in the first half of the season, sometimes not so well, but it happens, we know that we are always fighting to avoid relegation, I am convinced and confident that we will do even better in the second half," said Motta.

"I thought about the game first, to prepare for it in the best way, from today I think about the next one already, at Verona at home, a complicated game for us.

"That's the way our job is: pressure, discussions, they'll always exist, that's why I like it so much, every day with great commitment and professionalism with the staff and the players, who are the protagonists, who played a great game and deservedly won."
