Napoli did excellent business in the Serie A on Sunday evening. In their own Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, the team of coach Luciano Spalletti was 3-2 too strong for Bologna. Joshua Zirkzee scored the opening goal with the visitors and that was also the first goal in Serie A for the Dutchman. With the victory, Napoli takes the lead from Atalanta again, while Bologna, which had to do without the injured Jerdy Schouten, Denso Kasius and Marko Arnautovic, is seventeenth.
After just under twenty minutes of play, a smooth attack by Napoli almost led to the opening goal. Stanislav Lobotka brought the ball to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who passed to Giacamo Raspadori in one go. The Italian’s attempt then went just wide. Just under ten minutes later, good preparatory work by Kvaratskhelia led to a great opportunity for Matteo Politano, who saw his attempt pass. On the other hand, it was hit. A nice through ball from Nicolás Domínguez reached Andrea Cambiaso, after which the Italian reached Zirkzee in the sixteen. The born Schiedammer shot the ball into the goal with the left: 0-1. However, the visitors were unable to hold onto the lead for long. From a corner kick the ball came out of whack at the feet of Juan Jesus, who had the ball for tapping: 1-1.

After the break, Spalletti brought Hirving Lozano into the field, among others, and that turned out to be a golden opportunity. The former PSV player saw how goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski did not clear the ball well after a great attempt by Kvaratskhelia, after which Lozano only had to tap in at the far post: 2-1. However, Bologna soon equalized again. Musa Barrow decided to shoot from about 25 meters and saw Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret blunder: 2-2. So Napoli had to look for the lead again and it came. Kvaratskhelia had a brilliant through pass, which set substitute Victor Osimhen free in front of the goal. The Nigerian then finished through Skorupski’s legs: 3-2. In the final phase, Lozano was still close to his second, but one on one with Skorupski, the Pole came out on top.
