Higuain: Napoli deserved victory over defensive Carpi

Published on: 07 February 2016

Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain has revealed how the Partenopei’s patience paid off during their 1-0 Serie A victory over Carpi at the Stadio San Paolo in Naples on Sunday afternoon.

The 28-year-old scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot to ensure the Azzurri stayed at the top of the league table ahead of next weekend’s clash against Juventus.

“It was a very difficult victory against a very defensive Carpi outfit,” Higuain told reporters following the match.

“We have worked hard and we had patience, and we managed to score the vital goal. It is important to continue on this track, there is still a lot to do in our challenge for the Scudetto.

“Now we have a week to prepare for the next game. It is[the match against Juventus] not the most important match of the year, it is just another game of this championship.”
