The Little Donkeys lost to Milan in their last match at home in Serie A and the defeat ended their three-match unbeaten run as the hosts.
“We did everything we had to do, it’s normal that the opponents are there too," Napoli manager Luciano Spalleti said as he reacted to their win over Verona.
"We considered everything that was going on, Verona made people talk about themselves because they have the strength, creativity, and technique.
"But today we have to congratulate my boys, they put something more than the normal characteristics into it. I expect that we always have this reaction they had today.”
