The Milan sponge the Diego Armando Maradona and redeems the defeat of the first leg: it ends 0-1 (as in the San Siro match) for the Rossoneri and the Naples he folds in front of the goal as a purebred bomber signed Olivier Giroud (the Frenchman deflects a shot from Calabria that would have come out of the face of goal). The Rossoneri return to the top of the standings with two points onInter (with one game less, the match in Bologna must be recovered) and three on the team of Luciano Spalletti.
Napoli-Milan, top and flop: Affaritaliani.it report cards
In Milan the proof of it is overflowing Theo Hernandezattentive in the defensive phase and irrepressible when he starts again (rating 7.5: the only drawback is the warning that will cost him the match at San Siro against Empoli), the usual shines Rafael Leao (vote 7) that the defenders of Naples they almost never manage to stem when he decides to go away with the ball and chain. Giroud (grade 8) decides the match with a billiard touch that is somewhat reminiscent of the one in the derby (Koulibaly – vote 6 – perfect for the whole match he is mocked by the cunning movement of the French and ends up keeping him in the game), but the French center forward is also decisive in getting the team up during the 73 minutes in which he remained on the field (he goes out for a right ankle problem). In midfield, he dominates Bennacer (grade 7): runs everywhere and plays every ball with the safety of a professor (at his side a Tonali careful in the phase of containment, vote 6). The Naples he is not brilliant as on other occasions, he tries to put the game back on track in the final, but overall Spalletti’s team suffers from the game of Milan. You save a great one Osimhen (vote 6.5) fighting like a lion against the duo Tomori-Kalulu (almost perfect in the control of the penalty area, vote 7) and always gives the feeling of being able to hurt the opposing defense when he starts at speed, but the Nigerian is left too alone by his team mates: Badge (vote 5) it never makes a difference, Politano (rating 5.5) try to create but little concrete (better Ounas when he enters his place: vote 6.5) ea Zielinsky (vote 5.5) missing the winning flicker.
