Inter back on top, Napoli overwhelmed

Napoli-Inter 0-3

Inter scored a convincing 3-0 victory over Napoli at the "Maradona" in the postponement of the 14th day of Serie A. The team responded to Juventus’ victory in Monza and regained the lead in the standings. The performance of the Nerazzurri è was characterized by great solidity and substance: they opened the scoring on 44' with a missile from outside by Calhanoglu and then found the double early in the second half thanks to a perfect insertion by Barella (62').

In the final, Thuram closed the score on an assist from Cuadrado (85'). Napoli struggled, hitting a crossbar with Politano at 0-0 and found a super Sommer on at least a couple of occasions, but in the end had to surrender to the superiority of their opponents. For Mazzarri è the first knockout in the league and is hooked by Roma in fourth place.

Simone Inzaghi spoke to the microphones of DAZN: "In the first half we had started well, Thuram had scored but è was narrowly cancelled out. Then we were facing the champions of Italy, we risked on Politano’s crossbar and Sommer’s save. But I am delighted, I hugged the boys one by one. It was the third away match in a week, we needed a match like thatì. Winning in Naples like thatì makes us happy, but there’è still a lot of work ahead and we will work as we have been doing these three and a half months”.

"We made a show of strength in the’team as a whole. We lost De Vrij after 18 minutes, I had Bisseck and Carlos Augusto who last time he played third of defense was at Monza with Stroppa. I didn’t want to move Darmian who had Kvaratskhelia who è was a bad cat, but è was very good".
