Serie A Football News – Napoli Decimate Udinese by Winning 0-4
After only 24 minutes, Victor Osimhen scored, but this, Napoli’s first goal, was all about Lorenzo Insigne.
The captain of the Azzurri raced down the left flank and beat Marco Silvestri with a lob.
Osimhen, the actual goal scorer, only assisted Insigne by touching the ball just before it crossed the line.
Then, Fabian Ruiz shined through with a sided-foot effort but unfortunately, his ball hit the post from long range.
Just before halftime, Amir Rahmani doubled the Partenopei’s lead. He headed the ball into an empty net from a corner kick action.
Udinese goalkeeper Silvestri saved a shot from Koulibaly, only for the latter to find the back of the net from another set-piece at the 52nd minute.
For this goal, Insigne delivered the cross, and Fabian Ruiz found Koulibaly, allowing the defender’s goal at the far post.
Finally, Hirving Lozano finished the job for the Azzurri with a curler from inside the box into the far post.
This fourth, final goal was after Silvestri prevented André Zambo Anguissa from scoring his first goal in a Napoli shirt.
There was still time for Udinese to score, but goalkeeper David Ospina palmed Ignacio Pussetto’s shot, which then flew wide.
