In the Italian "Serie A" league, Napoli defeated Atalanta 2-1 away.

In the first half of the match, the defending champions Napoli took the lead, although their goal in the 34th minute was disallowed. It was particularly embarrassing for the hosts to concede a goal in the 44th minute, scored by one of the club's leaders Khvicha Kvaratshkellia.

In the 53rd minute, Atalanta's forward Adebola Lookman equalized the score. It seemed like a draw was the most logical result of the match, but Eljif Elmas decided otherwise. He took advantage of a mistake by the young opponent's goalkeeper and once again put Napoli ahead. Later it became clear that Marco Carnesecchi's mistake was a crucial moment in the match.

After this victory, Napoli temporarily climbed to 3rd place, while Atalanta sits in 6th place.

In the next match, AS Roma suffered another defeat this season. They lost 1-2 to Salernitana away, and the capital's team is currently in 10th place in the standings.
