The determined Catalans did not intend to stop. In the 17th minute, during a quick attack, Raphinha hit the crossbar, but J. Cancelo followed up his inaccurate shot with a goal, making it 2-0.
Napoli had to dig themselves out of a difficult situation, and in the 30th minute, defender A. Brahmani scored a goal.
Soon after, the Italians had a chance to equalize, but G. Di Lorenzo's attempt was blocked by M. ter Stegen.
In the second half, both teams exchanged dangerous shots, but the difference remained the same until the 83rd minute.
Then S. Roberto made a pass to R. Lewandowski, who scored the team's third goal, making it 3-1.
