Giovani Di Lorenzo, the captain of SSC Napoli, has confirmed that his team is required to deliver a perfect match when they face Arsenal tomorrow, Wednesday, in the opening of their UEFA Champions League campaign, emphasizing the team's desire to achieve a strong start.

Giovanni Di Lorenzo said: "Tomorrow we need the perfect match, we will give everything we have to be up to facing a big opponent," confirming that the match represents a perfect opportunity for the team to respond after their recent loss to Inter.

He added: "After the defeat, it is important to play a big match quickly. We have reviewed the mistakes we made, and in the UEFA Champions League, you cannot give your opponent anything."

SSC Napoli captain spoke about coach Massimiliano Allegri's demands, saying: "He wants us to be more aggressive and to know how to suffer when we don't have the ball. We are still at the beginning of the season and we are not in our best physical condition, but we all have to work as a team."

Di Lorenzo concluded his remarks by affirming SSC Napoli's ambition in the tournament: "We want to have a better run in the UEFA Champions League compared to last season, and we want to start well against Arsenal. We have the capabilities and we believe in our ability to achieve a positive result."
