It was a goal-rich first half between Napoli and Leicester in the Europa League. Napoli took a two-goal lead, but the English caught up and went to the break with a draw.
After half time, however, the home team regained the lead, and the goal celebration in the first did not continue in the second. 3-2 was the last goal of the match and Napoli take all three points. They now have to qualify for continued play in the Europa League, when Spartak Moscow took first place in the group.
For Leicester, on the other hand, it was a third place, which means continued play in the Europa Conference League. For coach Brendan Rodgers, it is not entirely familiar with the new third division in the European game.
– I’ll be honest, I do not even know what kind of competition it is. I focused on the Europa League and winning the group. Or at least come second, so with all due respect to the competition, I’m not sure what it is. I’m sure I’ll figure it out soon enough, he says after the match.
Rodgers was really disappointed with the result and said even after the match that he was sorry for the fans. But his sympathy did not land well. On social media, Leicester supporters have expressed a wish for Rodgers to leave the club.
“Get Brendan Rodgers out of my football club”, writes one supporter, while another writes: “Away with Rodgers, ‘enough is enough'”.
