SSC Napoli 0-1 AC Milan

Goals: Giroud (49^and) for Milano

He no longer has the most high-sounding names. Nor the largest budget. However, AC Milan is clearly in the starting blocks. Those of the race Shieldto which the guys from Pioli showed that they could definitely claim, by dominating Napoli with solidity, a goal to nothing this Sunday.

fire and ice

Often coldly realistic this season, Napoli have decided to change their face tonight: the Maradona is in fusion, and the Azzurri choose to embrace the local heat from the outset. Di Lorenzo multiplies the climbs, Fabian Ruiz delights in the midfield, Politano twirls in all directions, and Osimhen is impressive in pivoting control in front. Technically dominated, Milan cashed in stoically by daring to assume a high and aggressive pressing, which rather effectively froze the Neapolitan offensives. The Lombards did not even end up regaining some control, in the wake of Giroud, impeccable in deflection, and Leão, infernal in one against one. What give birth to an exciting first half, where the two teams will have gone gnon for gnon.

Giroud, Fantastic Mister Fox

Now well on their feet, the Rossoneri begin the second act at full speed, while the Napoli strangely begins to tangle the brushes technically. Not crazy, Olivier Giroud feels the good deal, crashes in the sixteen meters and takes advantage of a deflected shot from Calabria to zigzag Ospina at close range. A hoodlum pawn surfaces, but the diavolo did not come to Campania to carry out a robbery. The Rouge et Noir certainly gave up control of the ball, but not of the match, still squeezing the Neapolitan offensives closely. Naples will have beautiful monopolize the leather in the last quarter of an hour, the Milanese will not let go of their piece of fat, nor the three points. And pocket a fundamental victory: here are now the Rossoneri Serie A leaders, two units ahead of the eternal rival interista.
