Gattuso’s men prevail with a convincing performance. Stroppa’s team is still the latest. Now the blues are -1 from Inter
Crotone Night is all Lorenzo Insigne. The captain is the protagonist of the second consecutive victory after the one obtained against Roma. His right to turn on the first goal is wonderful. And he is equally so when he suggests Lozano’s cut to be doubled. Then, Demme and Petagna will think about closing the game definitively with the third and fourth goals. Too much Naples, in terms of quality, for Crotone. Commendable, in terms of commitment, but technically too inferior to be able to concern the game and the Neapolitan individualities.

The midfield presented by Gattuso is an absolute novelty. He returns to 4-2-3-1, the Neapolitan coach and in the middle ranks Demme and Bakayoko. The formula of the two midfielders is proven, but this time there is no Fabián Ruiz to team up with the French midfielder. In his place is Demme, whom the coach has very much in mind. In Crotone there is Cuomo instead of Magallan in the initial formation presented by Stroppa. The Calabrians rely on Simy for the offensive phase, where the team is lacking: there are 6 goals scored so far, of which 2 in Scida and 4 away.

Napoli once again offers the white and blue shirt with vertical stripes, a facsimile of Argentina, the same one that they wore against Roma, three days after the death of Diego Armando Maradona. It’s safe to bet that the decision came, this time, also by a superstitious fact. A superstition that seems to be non-functional, at least in the early part of the race. After less than a minute, in fact, Petagna has the ball on the left to overtake her team, but the conclusion is inaccurate. The Crotone is not conditioned by the opponent’s value. On the other hand, at Scida he already tied with Juventus. And therefore it does not stop attacking. He does it on the right, with Messias on which Koulibaly is forced to intervene in an ugly way: for him the first yellow of the afternoon.

The difference, however, is in the individual. The Crotone stretches well and creates problems when it comes out on the outside with Reca on the left and Messias on the right. In the center, Benali and Petriccione protect the median well. It is Petagna again in the 24th minute to have the ball right to the left to reach the result, but his conclusion is rejected by Cordaz. On a technical level, Napoli has an extra Insigne. And it is the captain who encourages his teammates in the 31st minute with the usual right-hand shot that ends at the intersection of the posts, making the Crotone goalkeeper’s escape useless. The Calabrians are very close to the equalizer in the 37th minute. Molina’s center is thrown by Vulic, who has just taken over from Benali. Ospina instinctively rejects.

We were talking about the technical difference. It is an evening that inspires Lorenzo Insigne. The captain decides to raise the level of the game and at 58 ‘with his usual right he will reward Lozano’s insertion: save and left-handed volley from the Mexican attacker for the second Neapolitan goal. At the beginning of the second half, Crotone was left at 10 men due to the expulsion of Petriccione: the entry of Demme forces Marinelli to review the action after the signaling of Var. The foul deserves the direct red. With one man less, Crotone’s game no longer makes sense, Napoli play calmly, worrying about possession. Just before half an hour, Gattuso calls Zielinski back to the bank and puts Mertens in, proposing him again behind Petagna. Napoli’s monologue also brings the third goal, in the 76th minute. Molina loses the ball in the center of the field and Bakayoko launches Loznao’s shot. The Mexican cross was played by Mertens for the current Demme. The shot with the right leg of the German midfielder definitively closed the game. Petagna’s fourth goal, however, concludes the afternoon.
