Napoli players took to the pitch wearing a special Argentina-inspired jersey on Sunday in honour of club legend Diego Maradona, going on to crush Serie A rivals Roma 4-0 in his memory. Captain Lorenzo Insigne curled in a free-kick after half an hour, celebrating his goal by holding up and kissing the No. 10 jersey of the Argentina legend, who died aged 60 on Wednesday. "It's sure these days after Maradona's death have given us an extra boost, our idol has passed away and it hurts," said Insigne.
"Today we wanted more than usual to perform and get a result, for him and for the whole city that is suffering. We dedicate the victory to him." Napoli's jersey with white and light blue vertical stripes, was specially designed to pay tribute to Napoli's legendary number 10 who led the club to their only league titles in 1987 and 1990 and the UEFA Cup in 1989. Insigne added: "Tonight's game must be a starting point, if we play like this we can beat anyone.
