Cicero 3,073 Posted March 7, 2017 Going to need a solid defensive performance if Napoli want to get anything from this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyGriff 0 Posted March 7, 2017 Napoli can beat Real Madrid, yes! They are highest goal scoring team in Serie A and lost just 4 in 27 games. Good attacking side and a typical Italian defensive tactically who are not easy to break at home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cicero 3,073 Posted March 7, 2017 2 minutes ago, Machado said: I think it's Madrid who are going to need a solid defensive performance Real will just swing in cross after cross after cross. It's obvious that is all they practice during training considering the enormous lack of fluidity and balance in their overall play. Only game plan, swing it in and hope it lands on either Ronaldo, Ramos, Bale, Benzema, or Varane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asura 299 Posted March 7, 2017 Napoli do have a chance, they can score 2 goals in their home...hopefully they keep a cleansheet too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noelcwt 7 Posted March 7, 2017 Unless BBC is having a off day, I don't see us not scoring here. We dominated Napoli for almost the entire game in the first leg and could have been 4 or 5 up easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 6,179 Posted March 7, 2017 Real are conceding like crazy at the moment. Took a couple of late goals last week to rescue a draw at home against Las Palmas Can't remember they last conceded 3 at home as well but regardless it shows how weak they are defensively. When you have Marcelo and Carvajal bombing up providing width to get a million crosses in it'll always leave gaps at the back. Still think they'll come away with a win here though. At worst a score draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tommy 3,132 Posted March 7, 2017 1:0 Dries Mertens. Lovely attack, but Real's defence looked terrible. Game on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cicero 3,073 Posted March 7, 2017 Real again with a cross. Rinse and repeat. Hamsik has given the ball away more than one occasion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Two set piece goals, one rebound goal. To be honest the score line doesn't reflect the game, we were dominated for the most part of the match and it is worrying, this is our best eleven and we can't control and create anything. We will absolutely get annihilated if we play like this against Barca or Bayern. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBalon 2,605 Posted March 7, 2017 Napoli shot themselves in the foot in the first half when they could've easily been 3 up. Nevermind... I wonder what dross will be left over for the quarters that Real can be offered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBalon 2,605 Posted March 7, 2017 Just now, Cannabis said: Nailed on to be Leicester if they get past Sevilla. Without a doubt. Let's see who gets through and we can all place a bet amongst each other because the bookies won't be offering much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inverted 1,111 Posted March 7, 2017 Had uni work to do but watched because I seriously felt Real could struggle. Napoli were totally dominant and looked superb but wasted a couple of openings and at just 1-0 I had an uneasy feeling. Then Ramos scored the first header and you could tell it was going to be one of those Real performances. Glad I tuned out and got some work done rather than watching the last two goals.
