Rafael Benitez urges Napoli to exceed 100-goal mark in Ukraine visit

Napoli coach Rafael Benitez tells his charges to reach the 100-goal barrier in Ukraine and eliminate Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk from the Europa League.

Rafael Benitez has warned Napoli that they must reach the 100-goal barrier in order to eliminate Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk from the Europa League on Thursday en route to the final.

The Italians travel to Ukraine knowing that they must score at least once in order to reach the showpiece in Warsaw later this month, following the 1-1 draw in the first leg.

Having netted 98 times in all competitions this season, the Spaniard says that his charges must reach treble figures to knock out the Ukrainian giants.

"I told the players that we most come here to score and win the game," he told reporters.

"We know that 0-0 would be good for them. Dnipro are a team who defend well, they are good on the counter and they are strong also on set pieces.

"We also know that we are a team who score goals. We scored 98 so far in all competitions and we want to reach 100. We'll try to achieve that tomorrow."

Sevilla, leading 3-0, contest the other semi-final with Fiorentina in Italy.
