Key points

  • Napoli ended three consecutive defeats with a clean-sheet victory that showed composure and organisation
  • Favasuli, 22, impressed with his movement and crossing; Gilmour and Lobotka's midfield partnership pleased
  • Allegri's tactical adjustments and a calmer atmosphere could unlock the squad's potential despite injuries

AI summary

Corriere dello Sport argues that Napoli's win against Bologna deserves credit for the team's own performance, not just Bologna's weakness. The midfield pairing of Gilmour and Lobotka worked well, while young Calabrese Favasuli caught the eye with his intelligent play and crossing. Spinazzola was solid on the left.

The columnist urges perspective: Napoli is not finished despite three straight losses and a thin summer market. With Anguissa and McTominay absent, the squad showed it can play with purpose and without fear. Allegri's substitutions and a less toxic atmosphere could yet make this ageing, undervalued squad competitive again.
