Napoli president revealed what Ancelotti promised him ahead of the Liverpool clash

Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis admits Carlo Ancelotti promised him they’d beat Liverpool in the Champions League group stage. De Laurentiis told the Corriere dello Sport: "We had years of telephone contacts, and once in a while Carlo asked us about our footballers and I with him of his own. And when he sensed that there would be no margins for negotiations he did not insist. "If I talk about football, he is not offended: before Liverpool, in the morning, I called him and so, I have expressed opinions and him with grace, authority and integrity, he said: 'Be assured, do not worry, we win it'. "I took him at his word and at the 87th I said, 'But what happens now?' Well, it happened. You cannot know my reaction."
