„Napoli“ team after a difficult period in the Italian championship, managed to achieve an important victory away. The visitors from Naples defeated none other than one of their main rivals, the „AC Milan“ team - 1:0. The winning goal came very early in the match, already in the 5th minute from a corner kick, Piotr Zielinski accurately lifted the ball, and Eljif Elmas in the attack managed to beat the goalkeeper of the „AC Milan“ team. At the end of this match, there was also a quite scandalous episode. The Milan team thought they had equalized after Franck Kessie's goal, but the referee consulted with VAR and noticed an offside position of Olivier Giroud, who was lying offside during the goal. After this episode, „AC Milan“ had no chances to equalize and the match ended 1:0 in favor of „Napoli“. After these matches, in the league table, „Napoli“ surpassed the „AC Milan“ team, while „Inter“ after this round already has a 4-point advantage over the main pursuers at the top of the league table. 📸 - NO GOAL!
