It took a masterpiece, another Insigne masterpiece, to avoid Napoli, in full recovery, the third loss in a row. The usual specialty of the house, but this time from an even more complicated position: a velvety right that starts from the left and fades into the goal on the opposite side. A goal that equalized the score with a good and honest Turin that thanks to Izzo He had waited until the end in the big blow and that prevents Naples from ending up in crisis. Gambling crisis and results.
There is no crisis, therefore, but the worries, the fears, the fears remain at home in Naples.. And maybe this Christmas break will come at the right time, who knows, to catch our breath and get back those game ideas that have long ended who knows where. A mockery, however, for Torino who, if he was wrong, was going too far back in the second half.. In short, having left the field and space to Napoli as he had never done in the first part of the game.
Change, Giampaolo. After the draw with Bologna, he resurfaces Sirigu Apr and Pali, Good Morning in defense and puts It gave almost glued to the Rooster. But the real novelty of the Toro in Naples lies in the design. In the defense of three men, in the four of the midfield and Lukic behind the forwards. Defense to three, which, of course, becomes five when the ball is Neapolitan. I am Singo me Rodriguez to complete that line, while the rest of the team shortens, approaches, takes space and depth from Gattuso’s team. Granted, it’s not brilliant football that Taurus offers, but who cares. With the ranking he has, as desperate as he is, Torino only has to take care of the substance. And then, really, his football covered, all defense and restarts, at least at the start, is very orderly. Certainly more orderly, logical and worthy of what Napoli brings to the field.
That’s right: Torino has an idea of football. You can see it. Napoli, on the other hand, has little or nothing in mind: they make a useless dribble between midfielders and defenders – which Toro gives them when they are in their own field – but when they try to put the nose on the other side, they find a Torino already well arranged in lines and marks.
Well, that Torino arrived at Napoli attentive and covered to try to get at least one point and, why not, save his coach and freeze the crisis a bit, there is little to do, it was obvious.. What was not expected was the debauchery of the blues. Empty equipment. Tired team. Team out. But not only in the head: also in the legs. Apart from the reaction to the non-match against Lazio. In the two losses in a row. To criticism. Nothing. Not an iota of enthusiasm for the good news came the day before from Coni College, even that point has already returned. Nothing at all: for Napoli the match with Toro seems more or less the continuation of the ugliness with Lazio. Or maybe, who knows, we have to go even further. And it is that at first without light with Crotone, then with Sampdoria, then also with Inter, where there was a reaction, it is true, but above all nervous, only in the final. Mah.
What is happening to this team of certain technical depth and not even misplaced in the championship and Europa League accounts? It is not understandable. At least not yet, since this time he had also found Insigne. Osimhen and Mertens are missing, this is true, but are two absences enough to justify so much darkness? Not impossible. Just as the accident that happened is not enough Demme, released (29 ‘) by a knee from Belotti right in the back. Elmas in the field instead. Elmas who is installed from the top of the midfield, with Zielinski who lines up with Bakayoko.
The match? Little things actually in the first half. Seriously, for Napoli, a couple of attempts by Zielinski in the final, while he tells the Toro more, with Meret having to stop a Verdi attempt and then with Belotti and Buongiorno who at different times send the ball to nothing from the goal.
Then there is a wait for the second half. Especially on the blue side. Will Napoli wake up? Will you find the strength and pride to react to the sadness of your football? No way. Being rewarded is the Bull. What happens deservedly (56 ‘) right with Izzo, a boy and former Neapolitan. A dirty shot, his, that in the advance of a corner falls to the ground and draws a parable that leaves no opportunity for Meret. But let’s be clear: the Granada advantage is deserved, while Napoli not only continues without ideas, but not a bit of character to put it at least in the desire to avoid another thud. Gattuso? Politano (63 ‘) is removed and he trusts Lozano almost miraculously on his feet after the stomp he remedies with Lazio. That is to say: let’s see if at least the Mexican invents something in this new night of passion. Passion especially on the front row, where Napoli has been guessing very few for a long time. But desperate as he is, it’s not enough, Gattuso tries to shuffle the cards again – through Hysaj. Bakayoko and Petagna and in the field Mario Rui, Fabián and, listen, listen, what Llorente that for some time he had even been outside the coach’s technical plan. In short, a debut. But you know, when things go wrong, we hold on to everything and everyone.
What are you looking for, Gattuso? Freshness, physical strength, inches, probably. Certainly not winning geometries, given that Napoli does not bring any on the field and still nothing opposes the passion and sacrifice of a Taurus who attacks less, true, but who continues to risk little and nothing, if a header is excluded. very close but (78 ‘) Zielinski is delivered with beautiful precision into the hands of a silent Sirigu.
Then at the end, in its entirety over time, the captain’s magic. That saves appearances but doesn’t change the meaning of the night. And is that Toro has won a point, while Napoli has lost two more points.
