Chiellini: «I made a mistake and I’m sorry»





Chiellini: «I made a mistake and I’m sorry»

The day after the match people are still talking about Juventus-Napoli, especially Giorgio Chiellini. Against his will, the defender found himself at the centre of a controversy because of a gesture he mad after the final whistle was blown by referee Ayroldi.

The gesture led to a lot of comments both in the post-match as well as on the Sunday papers. After having cooled down, Chiellini took the opportunity to come clean on Sky Sport 24: «First of all I must say that I made a mistake and I therefore apologise to everybody especially to the Napoli supporters. It was not my intention to offend anybody. Unfortunately I got carried away by the agonism and because of the tension at the end of the match during which there were disagreements with the referee and some of the rival players».

The declaration made by Chiellini brought to a close the comments following the match and returned Juventus-Napoli to the football spirit. Thus, one can now talk of the victory obtained at the Olimpico. «For us it was very important to show we are still interested in the championship – concluded Giorgio-. We know that the scudetto can only be lost by Inter but victories like the one obtained yesterday serve as a boost for us for the upcoming matches, from the Coppa Italia match, to the derby up to the return match against Chelsea. They are all difficult matches which we must face with maximum concentration».
