Honestly and with all the sincerity of which I am capable, I would never have bet a euro on Empoli. Not only is the difference in strength of the roster of players different and not comparable, but also the difference in club, coach and management. They are really two teams of different sizes, it`s like David defeating Goliath.
Let's say that no gambler would have ever thought of betting on Empoli's victory against Napoli at the Maradona stadium, perhaps just someone who wanted to try his luck and it went really well for him. Nonetheless, football is like this, the strongest doesn't always win, I remember 2 years ago when Real Madrid lost against Sheriff Tyraspol at the Bernabeu, the comparison could hold up as a type of comparison. a former coach of mine when I was playing also always said "the ball is round and you never know where it will end up" to say that if you play intelligently you can beat even the strongest
