Put… brakes on Naples the Turin! His team, for another suspended match, Ivan Jurich dashed the Partenopei’s hopes of catching the top four, keeping it in 1-1. Somehow, h Naples reached 44 points, but is with more matches at -7 than the 4th place and the Bologna and did not take advantage of the two close victories he had earlier.
On the other hand, “granata” got a second draw in a row and has 38 points, but remains far from the top seven. However, he had a very long night Vanja Milinkovic-Savicwho took down the… rolls and kept the point for his team.
Napoli was better in the creative part and had more opportunities to score in the first half. THE Osimen and Kvaratskelia were the main exponents of the “partenopei” phases, yet they had found opposite them an amazing Milinkovic-Savic, with the Serbian keeper neutralizing every chance. On the contrary, Torino played mainly on the counter-attack and they had a great chance in the 41st minute when, after a foul by Rodriguez the ball stopped on the crossbar of the opponent’s goal. Somehow the two teams went to the locker room tied with no goals (0-0).
The Neapolitans entered the second half at the same pace, circulating the ball and trying to find the goal. Something that happened in the 62nd minute when after a nice cooperation from him Mario Rui and his Kvaratskeliathe Georgian opened the scoring for the “Partenopei” from close range, scoring his 10th goal in Serie A. However, Torino’s response was more than immediate, since in the 65th minute Sanabria with an awesome reverse scissors made it 1-1!
From there, the match started to become quite balanced, with both teams trying to create phases to score the winning goal. THE Osimen came a breath before he succeeded in the 77th minute with a shot from a difficult angle, but o Milinkovic-Savic she said “no” to him! As the minutes ticked by, Napoli again quickly took steps on the field and threatened, with the “grenade” playing mainly on the counter-attacks.
Until the final whistle, nothing changed despite the home team’s consecutive chances, the 1-1 remained until the finale, with Naples to lose the chance to catch the 5th Romawhile Turin is in 10th place with 38 points.
