The Neapolitans took the lead twice, but Frosinone tried to equalize at 2-2. Bad stumble due to goals from both teams
Napoli, the reigning Italian champions, have failed again in the current season. After all, this Sunday (14/4), at home, they faced Frosinone and only drew 2-2, to the disappointment of the fans, who flocked in large numbers to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. And they are ahead, given that Frosinone had good opportunities and even wasted a penalty. Politano and the Nigerian Osimhen scored the goals for the Neapolitans. Moroccan Cheddira scored the visitors’ goals.
For Napoli, who needed to win to enter the European zone, this extra point takes them to 49, in eighth place. Frosinone, who needed to win to get out of the relegation zone, remains in Z3, 18th, with the same score as Verona, the first team away.
Napoli scores, but Frosinone tries to equalize
After pressing a lot in the first minutes and coming close to scoring with Osinhen, Napoli managed to score in the 17th minute with Politano, who advanced from the right and scored from outside the area, in a beautiful goal. But after seeing the opportunity to widen Osimhen fail (great save by Turati) Frosinone grows and has everything to equalize, given that they have a penalty in their favor. But Meret did well to block Soulé’s shot, keeping Napoli ahead at half-time with possession of the ball.
However, in the second half, Meret went from hero to villain. In the end he gave up when he had the ball at his feet and hesitated, losing the ball to Soulé, the rest went to Cheddira, who sent it into the net, tying the match. Napoli wanted to give the answer immediately. He almost scored for Kvaratskhelia in the 16th minute, but in the 17th minute his ball went in. After a corner and with the defense blocking the rest, he fell to Kvaratskhelia, who replaced him in the area. Osimhen did not miss the mark this time, scoring his 13th goal of the season. Napoli 2-1.
But it wasn’t Napoli’s day. In the 27th minute, following a cross from the right, Cheddira hits a header with no escape. Frosinone goes up, Reinier (the same player as Flamengo and Real Madrid and who is Frosinone’s reserve), came on to give more strength to the away attack, which had the opportunity to come back. But it was Napoli who tried harder until the end.
