The 19th day of Serie A continued this Saturday with a tempting opposition between Fiorentina and Naples. Author of a good season, the Viola hosted Partenopei who had the opportunity to take first place in the standings in the event of a victory. Despite a balanced first period, it was Napoli who took the lead thanks to a superb number from David Neres who, after a long one-two with Romelu Lukaku, dropped several players before crucifying David with Gea (0-1, 29th). A few minutes later, Moise Kean, untenable this season, thought he would equalize but his goal was logically refused for a hand fault (37th).

Returning from the locker room, the Azzurri continued to be threatening and took off thanks to a penalty obtained by Zambo Anguissa and transformed by Lukaku (0-2, 55th). And despite a dangerous double opportunity for Lucas Beltran and the Florence team (61st, 62nd), Naples held on and even hit the nail on the head thanks to Scott McTominay who, like Romelu Lukaku, deceived his former teammate at Manchester United, David De Gea, with a nice shot from the right (0-3, 68th). With this sovereign success, Naples once again seizes first place while awaiting the meeting of Atalanta Bergamo against Juventus Turin on January 14. Fiorentina remains sixth.
