Rafael Benitez: 'Napoli will attack Borussia Dortmund'

Napoli coach Rafael Benitez vows to attack against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League tomorrow night.

Napoli coach Rafael Benitez has insisted that his side will go out and attack Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League opener tomorrow night.

The Azzurri host last season's beaten finalists in a tough return to Europe's elite club competition, but will go into the clash full of confidence after three successive wins in Serie A.

He told reporters at a pre-match press conference: "Napoli must play as they always play. We are not thinking about playing 11 men behind the ball. We want to attack and win.

"The difference between Europe and Italy though is the speed of the game. We face a club tomorrow who have had the same Coach for six years. It's the first real test for us. Borussia are amongst the strongest teams in Europe, but it is just the beginning of our journey.

"We are continuing to grow though. We can do important things, but this is just the start and tomorrow we face a team that is in better shape than ever before. In an 11 against 11 game however, anything is possible."

Napoli have scored nine times in three matches so far this season, with club-record signing Gonzalo Higuain among those to find the target.
