Gosh, Napoli only drew the same 0-0 after being kept quiet by Monza and this was a poor result at home. To be honest, I didn't watch this match but if I look at the statistics there is a fierce match between the two teams. Not a few cards have been issued by the referee, proving that there were many fouls in this match.
On the other hand, Napoli coach Walter Mazzari had to be sent off from the field after receiving a red card and it seems this happened as a result of strong protests directed at the referee. Meanwhile, Monza also suffered a loss in the final minute after Mirko Maric received a red card. The only important chance that Monza had was in the 68th minute after they received a penalty kick, only for Pessina to fail to convert the penalty into a goal.
I thought Napoli was going to take this opportunity to turn things around for themselves but the reverse is the case, they played at home yet they couldn't utilize their home advantage against the Monza side , this goes further more to show that Napoli has lost their touch and may continue to decline further until something is done to boost the morale of the Napoli squad. Napoli was once known as one of Italian elite football club but they are far from that status right now as a result of their sudden decline, they are the defending champion yet they seem like a team that just gained promotion into top flight, they have to start gearing up because there's alot to play for.
I think the absence of Victor Osimhen who received a red card in the previous match also had quite a significant impact on Napoli's attack line and placing Raspadori as his replacement was also not appropriate. But coach Walter Mazzari had no other option so he had to put Raspadori in that position. We can see the results and even if there is Kvaratskhelia it cannot change anything. This season has really been a decline in performance for Napoli and they have only won once in the last 5 matches.
Something we rarely see from Napoli and remembering that last season they crushed all the existing teams and now seeing the reality is 180 degrees apart feels strange for Napoli. It looks like Napoli will have to think about buying new players in January so that their squad can be more guaranteed in winning matches and also at the same time being able to penetrate the Champions League zone again because it would be a bit funny if Napoli couldn't do that.
