Hojlund Disagrees with Allegri: Everyone Must Take Responsibility

Napoli lost 4-1 away to Porto in the Champions League. With this result, the team collected only three points from the first four matches of the competition. Napoli won one of their four matches and lost three times. They lost seven of the 14 matches they have played in all competitions.

Speaking after the match, Rasmus Hojlund said the team was in a very dark place. Hojlund stressed that not only the players but everyone at the club should look at themselves in the mirror and take responsibility. He added that he felt a little tired at the end of the match due to illness and fatigue.

Allegri did not want to magnify the defeat and said the performance was good, at least in the first 70 minutes. Hojlund, however, said he did not agree with this view. The Danish forward acknowledged that it was not a bad game, but said the team must avoid bad goals and start winning matches. In his view, too many matches had been lost this season.

Hojlund appeared frustrated and angry in his post-match interview. The atmosphere in the dressing room is also reportedly tense. Matteo Politano's interview with Sky Sport Italia and the heated argument between Lorenzo Lucca and Kevin De Bruyne during the match point to tension within the squad.
