06 December 2020Napoli spreads in Crotone (0-4) and rises to 20 in the standings, -3 from the top.
For the Calabrians, bottom of the ranking with only 2 points, it is the eighth defeat in ten days.
Stroppa relies on Simy-Messias in front, on the other side Gattuso deploys the trident Zielinski-Lozano-Insigne behind Petagna central point. Napoli pushes immediately, Crotone is immediately put under pressure. Petagna however (24 ') wastes the great chance: primed by Insigne, he is hypnotized by Cordaz. For the Calabrians Simy leads the way (28 '). But shortly after (31 ') Napoli has an advantage: Insigne's big right from the edge, impregnable for Cordaz. Before the break, the reaction of the hosts was shy. The match virtually ends at the opening of the second half (50 '): Petriccione's foul on Demme, Marinelli, with the help of the Var, pulls out the red card. From this moment on, Napoli in total control of the game. The doubling arrives in the 58th minute: on an assist from Insigne, Lozano controls and strikes Cordaz with a left foot. The early curtain falls on the match, but there is still time for two goals: Demme signs the set with a precise diagonal (76 '); Petagna signs the poker (91 ').
