Benitez admits Napoli "anger" over Champions League exit

Napoli coach Rafa Benitez admits there's frustration over the manner of their Champions League elimination.

They were knocked out of the Champions League despite beating Arsenal 2-0 to amass 12 points.

"I expect the team to take the same approach as the Arsenal game, in every fixture. That is the key to becoming a winning side. I want to see intensity, more consistency and more victories.

"The attitude might've changed against Arsenal, but the tactics remained the same. It's not easy to maintain that tempo in Serie A and we can't rely on the long ball as much.

"We are angry that we had to abandon the Champions League with 12 points and we'll prove that on the pitch in Serie A."
