Napoli ace Marek Hamsik says it was an "honour" to play Barcelona for the Gamper Trophy, despite the 5-0 reverse.
The Azzurri were crushed in Spain on Monday night in a glamour friendly against the European champions.
"We have to forget the loss against Barca because Serie A starts this weekend," said the attacking midfielder.
"It was an honour to play at the Camp Nou though," continued the former Brescia player. "Barcelona demonstrated how well they can play - they are the best side in the world."
