Naples is always sluggish

With its new coach, Francesco Calzona, at the helm, Napoli signed another disappointing result this Sunday in Serie A.

Four days after their draw at home against Barça in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League (1-1), the Partenopei recorded the same score against Cagliari.

In Sardinia, Osimhen opened the mark (65e) but the outgoing Italian champions broke down in added time, surprised by Luvumbo (90e+6).

Deprived of success for three weeks, Naples remains ninth, four lengths from the top European spot – sixth – for the time being held by Roma.
