Randal Kolo Muani had Juve Vooruit on debut, before Napoli flipped back through the header of Andre Frank Zambo Anguisissa and a Romelu Lukaku penalty.
“I am disappointed about the defeat. We had a good first half, causing our opponents to cause many problems, a side that is not at the top of the table as a ranger, because they have a great coach and had the opportunity to prepare for this, “Motta told Dazn.
“However, we did not have that luxury and it turned out, because we had all the good work we did in the first half, we had trouble replicating in the second, and that is why we could not win.
“We have responded well in many other situations, we just didn't do it today. Juventus has not won here since 2019, it is important to point out that it is the sixth consecutive defeat for the club here, apparently that is a difficult place for Juventus, “Motta continued.
“I am very disappointed about the first Serie A defeat of the season, especially given the good first half. Napoli pressed hard, pushed hard and inevitably has a small advantage over our team by preparing for one competition all week. “
Motta also stated: “We showed a strong character in the first half, played good football and caused the problems of our opponents to keep possession, which is not easy here.
“We have limited an important player such as Lobotka and the idea was to be very solid in the second half, because we were against the Series A leaders who are in good physical form and were well rested, while we came from a tiring game Bruges.
“The idea was to press and defend well, but we couldn't do that because our quality was missing and when we started the ball away, Napoli tend to win the duels and that gave them an advantage.”
