The legendary world champion admires the game of Piotr Zieliński. “We’re talking about a very high-class helper”
Before the rematch, it is difficult to identify a clear favorite. However, the Neapolitans will have home advantage and the support of their fans. The chances of both teams in an interview were assessed by Marco Tardelli, the legendary representative of Italy and the world champion from 1982. “At the moment, away goals don’t matter, so I give both teams a 50 percent chance of success,” he said shortly.
The Italian was also asked specifically about his performance at Camp Nou. Tardelli did not spare compliments to the Polish representative. He believes the 27-year-old has made great strides and has become Napoli’s leader.
– In my opinion the midfielder from Poland was one of the best, if not the best, Napoli player. I think a goal scored could be a good summary of his performance. A good game compared to the Spaniards only proves that we are talking about a very high-class midfielder who receives such good reviews in Serie A for a reason – said the former player, among others and .
– He is currently at the best age for a footballer. For several years, it has been trusted by trainers. It is worth noting that at that time several coaches passed through Naples and, according to each of them, Zieliński deserved a place in the basic squad. However, I have the impression that it has still developed. He is undoubtedly one of the team leaders at the moment, summed up Tardelli.
Piotr Zieliński has played a total of 30 matches this season in all competitions. The Pole scored five goals in Serie A and also scored five assists. In the Europa League, the midfielder defeated the opponents’ goalkeepers twice.
