Lorenzo Insigne: 'Rafael Benitez has faith in me'

Lorenzo Insigne says that Napoli coach Rafael Benitez has faith in his ability.

Napoli forward Lorenzo Insigne has said that he feels Rafael Benitez has more faith in him than his former coach Walter Mazzarri.

The 22-year-old, who scored in last night's 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, said that his first European goal was a memorable moment.

"It was wonderful to score my first Champions League goal at the San Paolo against a great side," he told Sky Sport Italia.

"I am happy to have scored a good goal, but above all for this win so we go into the game with Milan fired up.

"I feel more faith from the coach compared to Mazzarri. I am in good shape physically and the wide forwards have to help out in defence, which we are all happy to do."

Benitez took over when Mazzarri departed for Inter Milan in the summer.
