Spalletti urges to celebrate in ‘right time’
Thousands of joyous Napoli supporters greeted the team early Monday as they returned from their victory over Juventus, which brought the prospect of a historic Serie A title within touching distance.
Fans flew banners and flags and sang songs as the team arrived at Naples-Capodichino Airport from Turin.
Napoli coach Luciano Spalletti could barely contain his delight after witnessing his Napoli side triumph at Allianz Stadium and edge even closer to clinching the title. But he said it isn't time for Napoli to start celebrating.
"The joy we feel is immense," the coach admitted in the wake of Sunday's 1-0 victory.
"It's another big brick to add to all the others we've laid on our quest for victory. But we must wait before celebrating. We'll keep the champagne on ice until the time is right."
If Napoli beat regional rivals Salernitana on Saturday they will need Inter Milan to avoid home defeat to Lazio on Sunday to be crowned champions for the first time since 1990.
