Just before the break, the Georgian broke the deadlock with a magnificent volley, leaving Wojciech Szczęsny speechless (42nd, 1-0). If Federico Chiesa equalized at the end of the match on an assist from Carlos Alcaraz (81st, 1-1), Raspadori dampened Turin’s enthusiasm seven minutes later. Attentive, the Italian pushed the ball out of the net after Victor Osimhen’s missed attempt from the penalty spot (88th, 2-1). With this victory, Naples moves back to 7th position and offers itself a breath of fresh air before traveling to Barcelona in nine days. Juventus remains 2nd behind Inter.
