The Napoli striker Goran Pandev has said that the club and its players have certainly not forgotten the 4-2 defeat suffered the hands of Juventus in the Supercoppa Italiana. Napoli and Juventus will be meeting each other in the crunch match the Italian Serie A following the completion of the international matches this week.
This is a clash between top two teams in the Italian Serie A, who are separated only on the basis of goal difference. Juventus have once again been unbeaten in the first seven matches of the season, which is a record they have been carrying from the last season. Napoli will be keen to break this record.
The striker Goran Pandev has said that the Supercoppa Italiana will certainly be on the minds of those Napoli players. He has said that almost the entire squad wanted to win this title, but they were beaten by the unbeaten Juventus team managed to win the match 4-2.
However, Napoli have shown in the first seven matches of the season that they are more than a match for Juventus due to the presence of players like Edinson Cavani and Marek Hamsik. Goran Pandev has said that he hopes that all the players will be spurred on by the revenge mission.
"We have to go to Juventus without showing them any fear. We have shown that we can trouble any opponent. We have what it takes to beat the Italian champions. We all know how our previous game against them ended. We have to make amends for that defeat. The Supercoppa was one big lie. I didn't say anything to the linesman, yet I was still sent off. One thing's certain, though, I won't even look at one of the match officials this time," said the striker ahead of this match.
