In just two of the last ten league and Europa League games, Napoli have scored reliable victories. In the rest, he tortured victories or did not win at all. Even 4: 0 on “Rome” did not bring a prolonged silence. After the 1: 1 in Alkmaar, Gennaro Gattuso was unhappy, speaking of mistakes, of the luck of his team, of allowing the opponent to have the ball. In the second negative half. The decisive match against Real Sociedad is scheduled for Thursday. And before him there was nothing to look for a brilliant game. It was only necessary to defeat the worst team in the league, who scored two points before this match. Just to win.
“Crotone” a week ago and became the first in 41 games, which failed to score “Bologna”. And its poor implementation was noticed today. He spent the first half very decently, aggressively, winning the first 30 minutes in possession of the ball, often thrown into the penalty area. Taking advantage of the fact that the opponent wanted to save strength and did not include full power. At the same time, the opponent created more in counterattacks. Petania turned around at 17 meters, not defeating Kordas in a duel after a pass to Insigne. Zielinski found Lorenzo and scored his classic goal, changing and turning hard towards the far corner.
Crotone could have scored. He created an inaccurate head strike from Sima from twenty feet and, shortly after the goal, Vulich’s strike from a lethal position. Ospina saved. And even after Petricchione’s elimination by a straight leg tackle (watching the video changed the decision of inexperienced referee Livio Marinelli) he tried to attack. But then his defense got thinner. Insigne launched from the side to the penalty area on Lozano completely free. After that, “Crotone” can only hope that Messias throws Ospina from midfield. I was close. And Demme and Petania designed the route.
Napoli are in third place, ahead of Juventus in goal difference.

You can tell how tired Milan is. How much the tight schedule affects the absence of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Today, “Zlatan Defense” Simon Kier and “Midfield Zlatan” Ismael Bennasser did not play. Because of this, the average age of the starting lineup dropped to 22 years and ten months. It was definitely tough against Sampdoria with their 67-year-old coach Adrien Silva, Candreva, Quagliarella, 31-37. Although he has not won five games in a row. After all, before that, a giant specialist has just released “Atalanta” and “Lazio.” Therefore, the victory of the “demons” is extremely important. Even this one.
Doria is a tough rival for Milan. In the last seven head-to-head matches, the winning score is 3: 3. And here he managed to fix his typical slimy game. The guests finished the first half with 71 percent ball possession, but with minimal speed and dangerous moments. The hosts’ bus ran almost perfectly. In the match’s debut in a mess outside Donnarumma, Tonelli almost scored with a header (Gijo retires). Lorenzo also incredibly scraped the ball from his own lane after Rebich hit. Horvath took a lot of shots, but Zlatan’s shadow in the center-forward position clearly spooked him.
Rival of the rescued “Milan”. Yankto, with a banal canopy, raised his hand and Cassie converted the penalty to the locker room. The second half has already begun “heck” super moment. Hauge, who came on as a substitute at half-time, fired a cross and Tonali settled. Of course, “Sampdoria” tried to recover, dangerously throwing balls into the Donnarumma penalty area. The Milan bus sections also began. Torsby missed his head from twenty feet. However, the league leader resisted. And he arranged a Hauge-Rebich (lumbago) -Castillejo combination. Only after that, Ekdal closed the canopy from the corner. Late.
“Milan” breaks the club’s record in points scored in the first ten rounds – 26 and in games in a row with scored – 30. Repeats the record of the last 27 years of consecutive wins away – seven. This was not easy to do. But even without Zlatan, the “demons” showed their true character. The character of the league leader.
