Mario Balotelli also scores, then Lozano saves Napoli
A tie, also determined by the goal of an old acquaintance of Italian soccer.
Napoli gets a 2-2 draw in the friendly played at Patini di Castel di Sangro against Vincenzo Montella and Mario Balotelli’s Adana Demirspor. The latter carved out a starring role for himself, signing the first Turkish equalizer against the Azzurri. The goal that set the final score, however, completed Hirving Lozano’s personal double.
No goal in the first half, when among the eleven sent out by Luciano Spalletti was also Osimhen (returned, however, among the seven who played only the first 45 minutes). Unlocking the score was Lozano himself, who took over from Politano in the second half and netted in the 56th minute in the split on an assist from Kvaratskhelia. Adana Demirspor reacted and took the lead with two penalties: in the 74th minute from the penalty spot Balotelli himself converted, in the 87th minute Sari. Lozano then closed it out as time expired, making the most of a daring play.
