Don't blame the ref, blame the player

Don't blame the ref, blame the player

Napoli coach Roberto Donadoni was left incensed after his side were trounced 1-4 by Genoa.

Their recent drubbing have made it 17 matches without a win for Donadoni's side.

In a controversy-ridden match, the Azzurri boss has refused to blame the referee for their loss.

Speaking to Sky, Donadoni said: "I will not stand here and judge the work of the referee tonight.

"All I am interested in is that Napoli lost 4-1, and that is not the fault of the referee.

"How we played is what bothers me, and I feel sorry for my players, because I know they tried hard, but we should be doing a lot better than this. Everything went wrong for us tonight, so we are not very happy.

"Obviously there were a number of errors we made, which I hope don't happen again, so we will work on these things in time.

"We must learn from this defeat and respond immediately," Donadoni said.
