The last match of Serie A between Napoli and Milan, which ended with the triumph of the Reds and Blacks 0-4, was placed in the center of attention for what happened on the steps of the Maradona stadium. Napoli fans caused riots as they started fights between them, becoming the protagonist of very ugly scenes. Before this episode, the president of the Blues, Aurelio de Laurentis, could not remain indifferent, who emphasized that those who participated in the riots do not represent the Neapolitan fans, while he stated that strong measures are needed, as was done in England with the hooligans to stop obscene acts on the stadium steps.

"It is a story that lasts for 50 years, if the laws in Italy are not tightened, we will continue to have such problems. They are not real fans, they are some criminals who are allowed to enter the stadiums and pass themselves off as fans by shaming the team they support. I hope there will be no riots at the title party because it will take place in the stadium and I don't want to think about another mess in Maradona.

However, I don't want to talk too much about the title. Neapolitans are celebrating everywhere, but I don't want to talk more because I'm superstitious. Even though the defeat against Milan doesn't bother me, not even for the Champions League, again in football there are losses, draws and victories and calculations are made only at the end.

Ticket prices? Milan will earn 10 million euros from the sale of tickets for the match with Napoli in the Champions League, while we will benefit from five. The most expensive ticket in Milan is 800 euros, while here it is 500. But I want to ask you? If you buy a 'Mercedes' or a 'Fiat', do you pay cheaper in Naples than in Milan? No, it is the same in both cities. If you buy a pack of cigarettes or a newspaper, do you buy it cheaper in Naples or in Milan? No, the same price applies. I don't understand this tendency of Italians who always complain, we have to put it aside", said De Laurentis.
