McTominay felt that his team matched up well against City, even after being reduced to ten men early in the game due to Giovanni di Lorenzo's red card.

He stated, "We were compact and resilient. We needed to be well-organized and do everything possible to prevent their attacks, while also being a threat on the counterattack. When you're expending a lot of energy, it's challenging to maintain a strong offense."

McTominay acknowledged that Manchester City has talented players and that Napoli needs to move forward from the loss.

As a former Manchester United player, McTominay received some jeers from City fans during the game, but he expressed his appreciation for returning to Manchester, saying, "It was nice to be back. It will always feel like home for me." He also praised the Italian fans, saying, "I love it in Italy and the people there."

McTominay also expressed his admiration for Napoli's manager, Antonio Conte, whom he worked with for a year. He credits Conte for being a significant influence on his career and is grateful for the opportunities he's received.
