This is one of the most boring games I have watched in the Serie A this season. Mourinho is using his usual game plan and Napoli are just way worse than I expected. I would have expected Napoli to be much more active than this in the attacking line. As Politano got a red card as well I just expect Napoli to try to preserve the 0-0 score to the end.
For some reason, the performance of the two clubs, both Roma and Napoli, was nothing too special. Even now, the results are really disappointing because Napoli are trailing Roma 1 - 0. Moreover, once again, Napoli only played with 9 players because Politano and Osimhen received red cards. This is the end of Napoli. They will definitely lose this match. And so will the next match without Osimhen. What a disappointment. It will be even more difficult for them to compete in Serie ARoma 2 - 0 Napoli.
That match was a disaster for Napoli. They did not only lose three points but they also lost the service of Osimhen and Politano for at least the next round if not more for Politano since his red card was just unnecessary.
Playing by one less player is hard, imagine losing two at some point. Even the probability of getting a draw will drop significantly after the second red card for Osimhen by losing a main player and at the same time their striker and also by playing with only 9 players. Roma profited from that at best and added another goal in the extra time. Poor Napoli
Inter and Juventus made the gap bigger by the end of this round and after the defeat of Ac Milan mainly. Bologna and Fiorentina are getting closer to Ac Milan with only 2-3 points gap.
