Osimhen-less Napoli Return to Winning Ways

Date:

Defending Seria A champions, Napoli followed a dramatic route to sealing their first win in three games.

Napoli hosted Hellas Verona at the Estadio Diego Armando Maradona, and it was a thrilling encounter. A game Napoli won 2-1.

The game had Napoli controlling most of the proceedings, but nothing concrete came out of the control and pressing. Napoli had just 2 shots on target, limiting their opposition to no shots on target.

The second half began with Napoli huffing and puffing, but it would be Diego Coppola firing home first for the visitors in the 72nd minute.

Napoli were not getting it right until they forced Pawel Dawidowicz to turn the ball into his own net, with 11 minutes left to play.

Kvicha Kvaratskhelia took matters into his hands in the 87th minute. A left footed curler from the edge of the area beating Lorenzo Montipo with his astounding effort.

Napoli sit 7th on the log with 35 points and hope to push higher up the table when their talisman, Victor Osimhen returns from the ongoing AFCON.
