Torino assistant coach Paro happy with draw at Napoli

Torino assistant coach Matteo Paro was happy with their 1-1 draw at Napoli last night.

Antonio Sanabria canceled out Napoli's opener scored by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Paro said: "Today Napoli moved the ball better with more technique and personality. They played a better match than the first game and forced us to defend lower.

"We have the characteristic of looking for a duel. Napoli played a lot in our half of the pitch because they have players with high technique. Buongriono took away depth from Osimhen, on some crosses we did worse.

"Something against players of this type escapes, but the defense he did a good job to limit Napoli as much as possible."

On Sanabria scoring, he also said: "We're happy because football is like this, on other occasions things went badly for him, tonight he comes in and scores a goal.
