The Napoli, under Antonio Conte’s leadership, won a convincing 3-1 win over the Fiorentina outside, taking first place in the standings tied to the Juventus. This performance reflects the strength and confidence of the team, which imposed its game with notable authority. The goals of Kevin De Bruyne over penalty, Rasmus Hojlund and Beukema sealed the Neapolitan victory, despite the fierce resistance of the Fiorentina, notably thanks to the defence of Bieuchema. The team demonstrated an ability to take the initiative and maintain pressure, even after a drop in diet at the end of the game.
Several players were particularly highlighted for their decisive contribution. Hojlund, in particular, made an exceptional match, confirming his status as a real attacker with a goal and a constant game to stretch the opposing defense. De Bruyne, qualified as a genius by Conte, scored the first goal and demonstrated a remarkable understanding of the game. The defence, with Di Lorenzo and Bieuchema in the lead, was also strong, minimizing the opportunities of the opposing team. The contribution of the replacements, although less constant, allowed to maintain the intensity and respond to the attempts to return the Fiorentina.
Post-match analyses highlighted the outstanding performance of several key players. Hojlund received the highest mark (8/10), followed closely by De Bruyne (7/10) and Bieuchema (7/10). The midfielder Milinkovic-Savic was considered strong (6.5/10), while the goaltender, despite a cashed goal, was praised for his commitment. The replacements received lower scores, some of which were considered less effective in their offensive contribution. The entire Neapolitan performance, however, was hailed as a demonstration of power and confidence, suggesting a promising season for the team.
