Stoppage for Naples. For his first match since returning from the break, the reigning Italian champion fell against Torino, 13th in Serie A (1-0). Too little dangerous in the first period, and handicapped by Lorenzo Lucca who was rarely inspired, Kevin De Bruyne's teammates suffered lightning at the half-hour mark by a former member of the club: Giovanni Simeone.
Billy Gilmour first put the Argentinian back into play by trying to intervene, then the attacker played the shot perfectly. He appeared in front of Milinkovic-Savic, sent Di Lorenzo flying, feinting on his completely missed tackle, then dribbled past the Serbian goalkeeper to finish. Not very successful, Kevin De Bruyne will not have found solutions to his team's problems, which were insoluble this evening. In stoppage time, Noa Lang thought he had equalized after Politano hit the post. The Dutchman even took off his jersey to celebrate with his supporters, before the VAR refused the goal for offside. Naples remains second but could be overtaken by AC Milan at the end of the day. Torino is 13th.
