Napoli looked set to drop points on Saturday until Giacomo Raspadori got a heroic winner in the dying seconds of their match against Spezia. “It was crazy. I still have goosebumps.

“It’s one of the best feelings I’ve had in my footballing career. I was disappointed because I’d missed two chances earlier on, but when the third came, I slotted the ball neatly into the corner. The team did well helping and supporting me right to the end.

“I owe it to my team-mates and to Spalletti as well for showing belief in me by not taking me off. I told him I wasn’t tired and he trusted me. I did well but I also had a bit of luck. I’ve joined an amazing group and for someone who is shy like me, it’s been really easy to fit in.

“These are three important points, rewarding the pressure we put on during the game. We’ll now look ahead because we need to do even more than we did today.”
