Mazzarri delighted with Napoli preseason form

Napoli boss Walter Mazzarri was delighted with their friendly win over Real Mallorca.

The Partenopei ruined Mallorca's season presentation by winning the Ciutat de Palma trophy last night with a 1-0 result sealed by Juan Zuniga.

"We have to keep going like this and I'm very satisfied, especially with the first half," said the Coach.

"We took control straight away with a strong tempo, playing the ball to feet and scoring with a good team move.

"There could have been more goals had we made the most of chances created by the way we moved the ball around in a fluid manner.

"We lost a little in terms of fitness after the break and let's not forget we were facing a quality side.

"I am satisfied, as Napoli are improving in every respect. All the lads are starting to make the movements naturally, so it makes the tactics work seamlessly."
