Rome, 23 August (LaPresse) – ‘It's great to start like this, I kicked in a dangerous area, it was definitely nice. The way of working here is very different and it's up to me to adapt to them and not the other way around. We could have done better today, but we need to repeat what we did last year.’ These were the words of Belgian player De Bruyne, who scored the second goal in Napoli's victory against Sassuolo. ‘In pre-season, we said we would keep our heads down and get the three points on a difficult pitch. We must remain humble.’ These were the words of Scottish player Scott McTominay, who scored the opening goal against Sassuolo.
