Napoli boss Benitez satisfied with victory

Napoli boss Rafa Benitez was satisfied with their 1-0 win over Lazio.

Gonzalo Higuain struck a first-half winner.

Benitez said: "I think Gonzalo is having a great season and played at a very high level. He made the difference in the Super Cup and did the same today. He is a forward who opposition defences always have to worry about.

"Gonzalo is proving that he's focused and giving his best. I think it's too early to discuss his future and he should focus only on having a great campaign.

"As I said, there are many points up for grabs, but every game will be difficult, so we have to take it one match at a time."
