The worst Naples of the seasonAlthough penalized for absences in attack, he lost at the Olimpico and relaunched Lazio to the satisfaction of President Lotito, who gloated in the stands a few places from the great rival De Laurentiis.

THE MATCH LIVE

The biancocelesti played as a team, with Escalante playing several smart balls and replacing Lucas Leiva in the best possible way, and with a Milinkovic-Savic always present at key moments of the game even though he did not play strikingly as he did other times. To these protagonists we must add Cyrus immobile, whose exploits are almost no longer news but still leaving their mark. Today, in particular, with an irresistible detachment on Maksimovic and a turn that turned into a perfect header with which he gave the advantage to his team, and then rounded off in the second half by Luis Alberto, until then not among the best but delicious at the touch of the goal. His hug with Simone Inzaghi is also pleasant, in the sign of an unbreakable harmony between the Spaniard and the coach. To also underline the defense test, which for once remained intact. Also because Napoli this afternoon could not sting, between the obstacles of Petagna, the flashes but then also the physical discomforts of Lozano and Politano that did not give the usual contribution, to the point that at a certain point Gattuso replaced him. with Elmas. So for the blues came the second loss in a row, this time deserved unlike the one against Inter. As for Lazio, now to check their progress there will be an immediate retest in the midweek round, against Milan who have won again and are still leaders.

Lazio had the merit of starting immediately strong, aggressive and passionate. An attitude rewarded with the 1-0 goal in the 9th minute: it was marked by the Golden Boot, Immobile, with an imperious detachment on Maksimovic and the header on which Ospina could not do anything.

Lagging behind, Napoli tried to play less soberly, taking the lead in the 18th minute with a play by Petagna that freed Fabián Ruiz, neutralized by Reina. Then, on the part of the Lazio defense, there was also a providential intervention on Koulibaly who had pushed forward.

In the second half it was legitimate to wait for the recovery of Naples, instead Lazio controlled the game and when Mario Rui made the mistake at the start that Luis Alberto, author of the 2-0, it was understood that Gattuso’s men were not in the afternoon . .

Thus, the visiting team, despite Gattuso’s changes, continued to turn the ball too slowly and could not worry the biancoceleste defense: never, as in this phase of the game, there were people of the caliber of Insigne, Mertens and Osimhen. In short, for Napoli it was just a night to forget, while Lazio will try to go back to being the one before the lockdown, which made us dream.
