Napoli captain Di Lorenzo previews Milan trip but lucky not to be suspended

Napoli captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo is looking forward to Tuesday night’s match against AC Milan but perhaps this is a game for which he should not be available.

Antonio Conte’s side beat Lecce 1-0 this afternoon to ensure they remain top of the table for at least another round, with Inter-Juventus awaiting tomorrow night and Milan’s game postponed.

Di Lorenzo continued Napoli’s great start under their new coach by scoring the only goal early in the first half. Next week, they face the Rossoneri team who will be without Theo Hernandez and Tijjani Reijnders due to suspensions. What should be served against Bologna.

After the match, the wing-back spoke to DAZN to reflect on the game and also look ahead to Tuesday’s game at the San Siro.

“Milan and Atalanta? Our aim is always to play to win, we did this in all matches. These are games that are easy on paper (against Lecce), but in reality they are not. “All teams have to face each other, but what matters is what we do,” he said (via MilanNews).

However, the Italian international probably should not have watched today’s match and should have been suspended for the trip to Milan.

Former referee and DAZN video commentator Luca Marelli spoke about Di Lorenzo’s foul on Ante Rebic after the match and said that this foul should have given him a second yellow card.

“92. In the minute, Rebic was fouled by Di Lorenzo on a long shot. “Rebic was entering the area and there it was coded yellow, it would have been a second yellow and red for Di Lorenzo,” he said. MilanNews).
