Coaching great Fabio Capello says Napoli were too nervous against Barcelona last night.

Napoli and Barca drew 1-1 in the first-leg of the Champions League round of 16 at the Maradona.

Capello told Sky Italia: "I saw the players being insecure, they played with fear, as if Maradona wasn't their stadium. Weak and always horizontal passes, Barcelona's pressing put Napoli in great difficulty, then the final 20 minutes in reverse, where Napoli has been reborn: thanks to Lindstrom, Raspadori and Politano, after an excellent first half by Meret who kept the team in the game.

"In the last 20 minutes I liked Napoli, playing fast and compact they put Barça in difficulty. Napoli must start the return match from here. It's not just a question of the head... Lobotka was praised last year, tonight he was hiding. This means there is insecurity.

"And then I didn't like Kvaratskhelia: he shouldn't do those gestures, if you go out you have to hug your partner, don't do that."
