Ancelotti’s team wastes too much and is punished in the second half. The Nerazzurri overtake Roma and join Milan in fourth place
Under the deluge, in an almost empty San Paolo, Napoli is replaced by Atalanta and cannot redeem the ko with the Arsenal in the Europa League. Mertens unlocks the result in the 28th minute and leads to only one goal from Maradona in the ranking of all-time scorers in Serie A with the Napoli shirt. The Belgian is at 80, in fourth place. The team of Ancelotti however, with Insigne on the bench for the whole race, wastes many opportunities to double, some sensational. And, as it almost always happens in football, in the end it pays a pledge. To punish her is the great former Zapata , who drew the score at 69 ‘and 80’ serves to Pasalic heel the ball for 2-1. The striker, who Napoli has let go and now would like to try to resume, took the scene and gave Atalanta a big boost towards the Champions. The Gasperini team has overtaken Rome and hooked Milan in fourth place.
