Double from the blue captain and counterattack goal from the Nigerian. Soriano’s network is illusory
Internal success of the Naples that on the 26th of A league beat 3-1 Bologna by Mihajlovic consolidating the sixth place. Azzurri already went ahead in the second round with a precise right hand from Badge. Bologna’s reaction caused a Skov Olsen post and two goals disallowed at the Palace, but in the second half Osimhen sign the duplication. The network of Soriano in the 73rd minute he deceives Mihajlovic, beaten again by Badge who signed the corset three minutes later.
THE MATCH
It took the field to smile back at Naples, to Gattuso It’s in Badge after midweek scum. The celestial captain with a double scored twice on the three points in the postponement against Bologna, in a challenge played openly by both teams and full of scoring chances. In 3-1 there was also room for the return to the goal of Osimhen, with a “Lukaku” walk in the open field to end the ordeal that lasted months for the Nigerian. Soriano’s goal was useless for a good Bologna, curiously punished in the second half immediately after the changes made by Mihajlovic.
However, it had already been understood from the first bars that the dispute could be sparkling. An error by Mbaye in dribbling started the special slalom from Ruiz, undecided, however, about the most beautiful. The action of the advantage, however, was built by Napoli minutes later, more precisely in the eighth, when the Spaniard in collaboration with Zielinski’s unmarked shot with the heel allowed Badge to beat Skorupski with precision from the edge of the area. However, Bologna’s reaction was brave and immediate. The rossoblù exploiting the good vein of Palacio and Skov Olsen They managed to put Gattuso’s defensive phase in difficulty, also finding a post with the Danish winger and two goals disallowed by the Argentine forward.
To take home all three points, Gattuso studied the correct play in the second half. After twenty balanced minutes, the Napoli coach decided to enter Osimhen lowering the center of gravity of his formation and opening spaces in the offensive half. Solution that became perfect in the 65th minute when, from an opportunity for Bologna, the Azzurri quickly turned the action upside down with Zielinski launching the Nigerian in one-on-one with Danilo, overwhelmed by the 2-0 goal. Not only that, always restarting three minutes later the same Osimhen sensationally devoured the double with an empty net, uncovering the blue side of the old unwritten football law that in 73 ‘allowed Soriano, on a ball recovered very high from Palace in Demme, to reopen the games.
An illusion lasted a few minutes for Bologna, surprised in the 76th minute at the restart after a triple change by Mihajlovic: on the long ball Osimhen finished off a ball BadgeTaking advantage of a mistake by De Silvestri, he slipped behind Skorupski for 3-1, leaving Ospina and Skorupski with the flashes of photographers in the final on Barrow and Politano. For Napoli came the fifth consecutive victory at home in this Serie A, vital to continue the race for a place in the Champions League with a direct clash against Milan on the horizon. For Bologna, however, the travel sickness continues.

REPORT CARDS
Badge 7.5 – Leave the controversial Reggio Emilia behind coldly releasing the game from the edge of the area. Find the double that closes the match a quarter of an hour from the end, but also makes a difference in the coverage phase by doubling steadily.
Zielinski 7 – He set up the winning assist for Insigne’s advantage, then played the entire contest with a sore muscle. On the trocar he always gives the impression of being able to invent something decisive and also sends Osimhen to goal.
Osimhen 6.5 – Leave difficult months behind with a gallop full of power and speed for the goal of turning. He enters the second half to take advantage of the spaces and does it perfectly, but devours an empty goal.
Skov Olsen 6.5 – It is inspired by “Diego Maradona”. Last season he found his first goal in Serie A, this time the post denies him joy. Very useful in helping De Silvestri, he tries to embarrass Ghoulam first and then Hysaj with his dribbles. Sign the assistance for Soriano.
Palace 6.5 – The relationship with the goal is still complicated, this time they have canceled (with good reason) two of them. For the rest he makes a lot of movement and is a constant apprehension for the defense of Napoli and Ospina, as shown by the very high recovery that he leads to the network.
