Napoli did not make a mistake against Cagliari on Sunday night. The sixth league game of the season was also converted into a win: 2-0. As a result, the team of coach Luciano Spalletti remains unbeaten in the lead in Serie A with eighteen points from six matches.
Napoli started the home game well and took the lead in the eleventh minute. A deep ball from André-Frank Zambo Anguissa was appreciated by Piotr Zielinski, who was quick enough to keep the ball in. He gave from the right for Victor Osimhen, who hit the near post to score his fourth Serie A goal of the season.

From that moment on, Napoli played a won game. Cagliari, where Kevin Strootman and ex-Ajacied Razvan Marin were in the starting line-up, could not do much against the home team from an offensive point of view. Walter Mazzarri’s team was made 2-0 ten minutes after the break. Diego Godín mowed down Osimhen in the penalty area and referee Marco Piccinini had no choice but to put the ball on the spot. Lorenzo Insigne made no mistake from eleven meters.

In the minutes that followed, Napoli simply remained upright. Cagliari reported only sporadically in the enemy penalty area, but was unable to create great opportunities. For Napoli, the sights can be set on Thursday’s game after Sunday. In the Europa League, the leader of the Serie A then takes on Spartak Moscow. Spalletti’s team started the European club tournament with a 1-1 draw against Leicester City.
