Barcelona dominated the first half with 3 good chances, but still failed to score. Lamine Yamal, Lewandowski and Ilkay Gundogan had chances, but all three were still unsuccessful as Alex Meret was excellent at making saves.
Napoli have not had a single shot from their several attempts to build attacks. Both teams' defenses were fine, but Napoli seemed a little loose at the back as Barcelona applied intense pressure. I'd like to see both of them score, but Barcelona looks like they can win this game in the end. A change in strategy may need to be made because Barcelona cannot go home with a draw.
Napoli looked quite chaotic in the first half in their game because they were playing at home but they did not show their best strength. I think if napoli players don't improve in the second half, Barcelona will probably take advantage of every opportunity to score a goal. Indeed, Barcelona had several opportunities, but unfortunately the final solution did not result in a goal because meret managed to break the chances that Barcelona had in the first half.
In fact, I noticed one of Napoli main players, namely osimhen, where his performance really declined because when controlling the ball, Osimhen was unable to get past the barcelona defense so he didn't create a single chance in the first half. Napoli fans really hope for osimhen in today match because if they fail to win at home it will be quite difficult for them to win in the second leg. There is still a lot of time in the second half where it is possible that there will be a goal in this match.
edit ; Barcelona leads 1-0
