This time losing, Napoli is officially announcing its withdrawal from the competition for the Serie A title this season.
Napoli has won the Serie A title twice in its history, and the opening stage of this season once let people see the momentum of winning the championship again, but unfortunately lacked the stamina, because their squad was not as thick as Inter and AC Milan, resulting in the key stage of the championship competition always unable to bite the points. Empoli, who played 14th in the standings this round, Napoli was unbalanced in attack and defense, and coach Spalletti arranged for Mertens, Osmayne, Lozano, Insigne and others to lead the starting 11 people, with a formation of 4231.
In the 43rd minute of the game, Mertens pushed the goal near the penalty spot, Napoli led 1-0; in the 52nd minute of the game, Insigne inserted the ball in front of the ball and directly pushed the goal from a small angle, Napoli took a 2-0 lead, Spalletti then replaced Lozano, Mertens, Insigne 3 main attacking forces, indirectly causing the midfield to lose control, and the back line collapsed instantly.
In the 79th minute of the match, Liam Henderson scored a powerful shot in the penalty area, and in the 82nd minute of the game, Napoli goalkeeper Merett gave a big gift, and the ball in front of goal was snatched by Pinamonti at the same time, Empoli 2-2 Napoli.
In the 87th minute of the game, Pinamonti stepped forward to break the goal, completed the kill against Napoli, led Empoli to a 3-2 upset, and stubbornly scored 3 points.
According to statistics, Napoli lost a mess, with a 59% possession rate, 15-17 with Empoli's shot on goal, and a positive shooting contrast of 3-7, which eventually became a 2-3 score. In shame, Napoli have been double-handed by Empoli this season, having previously lost 1-0 at home to Empoli in the first leg.
Napoli not only lost the chain in this game, but also won three key games of the recent championship, encountered a large avalanche, lost 8 points in 3 games, 1 draw and 2 losses, and successively 2-3 Fiorentina, 1-1 Roma, 2-3 Empoli. Napoli now have just 67 points after 34 rounds, seven points short of TOP AC Milan and five points less than Inter Milan, who is still a Serie A champion in one less match.
In the face of such a situation, Inter smiled, they are equivalent to reducing a title rival, while the temporarily top AC Milan schedule is tight, although this round of 2-1 small victory over Lazio, followed by consecutive matches against Fiorentina, Verona, Atalanta, Sassuolo 4 top ten teams, Inter's last 5 Serie A opponents are all teams outside the 10th place in Serie A, which means that Inter has the opportunity to win the defending Serie A champions in the next game.
