Champions: Osimhen is a rampage, Napoli in the quarters for the first time
Napoli cleared Eintracht Frankfurt with a dry 3-0 win.
Napoli stronger than anything: Spalletti’s team did not let pre-match tensions get in the way and liquidated Eintracht Frankfurt with a dry 3-0 win at the Maradona, clinching the Champions League quarterfinals for the first time in its history.
It is a historic achievement for the Azzurri, who reach the goal on a bandwagon with an aggregate result of 5-0 between the first leg and the second leg, annihilating the Germans who were never really able to trouble Spalletti’s team.
The big star of the match was Osimhen, who scored a brace in the 45th minute (framed on Politano’s cross), and in the 53rd minute (tap-in on Di Lorenzo’s assist). The Nigerian forward after the second tete suffered a wrist problem, and returned to the field conspicuously bandaged.
Rounding out the result was Zielinski on a penalty kick in the 64th minute, awarded for a foul on the Pole himself. Final in total management for Spalletti’s men, who on Friday will follow with their hearts in their throats together with the fans the historic Champions quarterfinal draw.
