NAPLES – Maurizio Sarri returns to Naples for the first time as an opponent and loses. Juve did not take advantage of the missteps of Inter and Lazio and fell to San Paolo under the blows of an extraordinary Lorenzo Insigne. Thanks to this success, Napoli has driven away a crisis with four consecutive defeats and has moved to four points from the Europa League zone occupied by Milan, Parma and Cagliari. Juve remains first with more three on Inter and more five on Lazio (which has one less race) but does not take advantage of the opportunity it had to stretch in the standings.
Napoli-Juventus, the trident Dygualdo does not shine: Sarri returns and loses as an opponent.

The result is right because the bianconeri appeared really subdued. Sarri focused on the trident of wonders by deploying Juventus with the 4-3-1-2 with Szczesny; Cuadrado, De Ligt, Bonucci, Alex Sandro; Bentancur, Pjanic, Matuidi; Dybala; Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo . But even tonight, the Dygualdo has shown great limits against opponents of a certain caliber. Perhaps this trident can only be effective against opponents clearly inferior to Juventus.
Gattuso won the game by betting on a 4-3-3 with Meret; Hysaj, Manolas, Di Lorenzo, Mario Rui; Fabian Ruiz, Demme, Zielinski; Callejon Milik and Insigne. The striker from Campania, who had already made the difference in the Italian Cup against Lazio, also gave a show against Juventus by entering the actions of both goals.
Insigne propelled Zielinski's first goal with a shot badly rejected by Szczesny, then for the Pole it was a breeze to bag it empty. Then Insigne got into the chair with a great goal with a right on the fly on a cross from the right of Callejon. In the final game, Cristiano Ronaldo made his team's defeat less bitter with a true striker's net on Bentancur's assists.
