'Real derby... still no goals conceded' - Koulibaly after Napoli's win over Salernitana

Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly has expressed his satisfaction with the way his team played in the 1-0 win over Salernitana in the Serie A match played at Arechi in Salerno on Sunday.

The Naples sode came into the match as favourites but laboured to get past the relegation-threatened Garnets.

The lone goal came in the 61st minute when Piotr Zielinski capitalised on poor defending to fire home from close range.

In the 70th minute, Grigoris Kastanos was sent off for a dangerous challenge leaving the hosts with a numerical disadvantage, but seven minutes later, Koulibaly was also red-carded for a professional foul.
