Problems in Naples and Bergamo

After going 1 in 6, Napoli needed a victory in Serie A. The high number of injuries, which raises big questions about the approach taken during preparation, prevented Antonio Conte from fielding his best team. On the Atalanta side, the situation is certainly not better.

A change of coach has already taken place there and, with a thirteenth place, the club is a big disappointment. De Ketelaere is also having a difficult season so far. Expectations were therefore not very high before this shock.

Napoli dominate Atalanta in first half

But it was unjustified, because we saw a sparkling Napoli in the first half. David Neres scored twice and Noa Lang also found the net.

Atalanta, with CDK in the starting eleven, was thus completely swept away. Scamacca reduced the gap after the break, to no avail. The score remained 3-1.
