Napoli boss speaks on Osimhen penalty miss, touchline row

Napoli manager, Rudi Garcia confirmed he spoke to Victor Osimhen after their angry touchline row in Sunday’s 0-0 draw against Bologna at the Stadio Dall’Ara.

Osimhen reacted angrily after he was subbed off in the second half.

The striker hit the post and missed a penalty.

Garcia defended his talismanic forward and said they have made up after the touchline row.

“Even the greatest players in the history of football miss penalties.

“As for when he went off, we talked about that, what I say to my players remains in the locker room.”

Osimhen has failed to register a goal in his last four appearances for the Partenopei.
