In a pulsating game at the San Paolo stadium in Naples there were chances aplenty for both sides and the woodwork was struck three times as the result could have gone either way. But Mourinho, while admitting Napoli did not deserve to lose, said his team had been deprived after referee Roberto Rosetti failed to give a first half penalty to Inter when a cross from Maicon clearly hit Salvatore Aronica’s arm in the area. “Napoli are a good team and for us that wasn’t a surprise but their football is predictable, even if they play with great intensity and speed,” said Mourinho.
