Napoli Tifo explained as fans send two-word message

Napoli fans pumped the team up with a stunning choreography before a Serie A match against Fiorentina, sending a two-word message in the Neapolitan dialect.

Antonio Conte’s men will push to end a five-game winless streak and return one point below leaders Inter.

They host Fiorentina at a sold-out Stadio Maradona on Sunday afternoon, and the home fans made sure their players entered the pitch with the right motivation.

Napoli supporters, in fact, put up a stunning choreography prior to kick-off, using two words probably not known by all English-speaking Italian football fans.

One word displayed in one of the Curvas was ‘anema’, and the other one was ‘core’. Both words belong to the Neapolitan dialect and mean “heart and soul.”

It’s fair to say that Antonio Conte’s men followed their fans’ advice as they took the lead with a Romelu Lukaku goal at minute 26.
