Sampdoria chief Beppe Marotta was happy to see Walter Mazzarri earn a first up victory as Napoli coach.

Napoli defeated Bologna 2-1 yesterday and Marotta, who worked with Mazzarri at Samp, said: "Mazzarri and Napoli? They will do great together, I have much hope for him.

"Mazzarri is a good coach, he left amicably because our programs and aspirations did not converge."
