Napoli has also conquered Europe and is eating Frankfurt

Napoli are dominating Italy and, it seems now in Frankfurt, Europe as well after getting on track with 0-2 in the round of 16 of the Champions League. Eintracht, current champions of the Europa League, could not stop the offensive uprising of the back-to-back tandem formed by Victor Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who, supported by an outstanding Hirving Lozano, comprehensively won the game against Randal Kolo Muani, the great trump, has been deposed. of the Germans

Eintracht tried to rebel against Napoli’s favorite lineup and hit them in the first few minutes with high pressure and made their defense doubt, mainly due to Mathías Olivera’s side.

Randal Kolo Muani, one of the focal points of the match, made two good moves in an unknown setting this season for the great Naples in ‘calcio’.

Napoli moved away from the pressure

But the pace demanded by Eintracht was impossible to sustain and, although Napoli took a breather, Aurelio Buta managed to stop Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen did not appear.

The unstoppable leader of Serie A needed only a small hole to punish the rival with his dizzying vertical football and he found it in the first defensive mismatch. Giovanni Di Lorenzo put in a long pass that was only left to Hirving Lozano, whose goal was denied by the post.

The play continued and Osimhen looked for Buta in search of the ball and he was brought down. Trapp saved Kvaratskhelia’s penalty, but the game changed the landscape.

Eintracht collapsed in defense and the beast woke up. Four minutes later, in the 40′, Osimhen opened the scoring with the first ball he caught, although all the credit went to Hirving Lozano, who, in a deadly counterattack, put in the ballon d’o the second Nigerian just needs to push. the grid. And in the next game against the ‘capocannoniere’ of Serie A, with 18 goals, 0-2 was disallowed for offside.

Napoli monologue

The second part is a monologue. Napoli pulled out the roller against a dedicated rival, broke down in defense and Hirving Lozano ended up breaking down with his excellent play on the right wing. Trapp kept the reigning Europa League champions alive by blocking a shot from the Mexican and throwing himself at Kvaratskhelia’s feet.

A straight red card to Kolo Muani, for an errant stomp on André Zambo Anguissa (57′), was the final blow to an Eintracht who conceded a 0-2 draw after an hour of play with a great collective play that graduated from Di Lorenzo. a tight shot after a good heel assist from Kvaratskhelia.

Although victory was lacking, only a disaster on March 15 at the Diego Maradona stadium could prevent Napoli from completing their qualification and accessing the quarterfinals of Europe’s top competition for the first time in their history. He didn’t even make it past the unlucky Argentine crack.
