Here are the report cards of the 11 men (plus substitutions) who took to the field at home Naples, who today suffered the first defeat of his new championship at Maradona against LazioToo few 30 minutes of high level at the start: the Azzurri collapse in the second half and fall for the second time in 6 months in front of the former Sarri.
Meret: 5,5. Punctured 4 times in total (two of which were obviously disallowed goals), still too many.
On Luis Alberto's backheel he is fooled at the near post, but it wasn't easy given the splendid and sudden play of the biancoceleste number 10. Good exit on Immobile launched towards goal in the second half.
By Lorenzo: 5,5. Not as bright as usual.
In the defensive phase he suffers, like the entire defense, from Lazio's speed of maneuver, which is deadly on the counterattack. In attack he is seen less than in the first two games: he closes with only one key pass and many precision errors, between crosses and passes.
Rahmani: 5. The partnership with Juan Jesus doesn't work this time and the speed of Luis Alberto and his teammates puts him in serious difficulty, starting with the Spaniard's backheel goal that opens the scoring.
In the second half the Biancocelesti went on an avalanche and could end with a rout.
Juan Jesus: 5,5. It starts well when, on a play by Felipe Anderson, he comes out to close down, blocking a very dangerous shot from inside the area. Then he collapses, with the rest of the defense, in the very bad second half of the Azzurri team.
On a dead ball he tries to have his say but fails.
Olivera: 5. In trouble on Felipe Anderson who at 52' escapes him and starts the action that will lead to the decisive goal by Kamada. It is the symbolic action of the match constantly chasing the Brazilian, who skips past him countless times, closing the match with two assists and more than one goal missed.
Anguissa: 5. Physically in pieces, he lasted just the minutes of Napoli's domination and then dropped significantly.
There is some responsibility for Luis Alberto's goal, then in the second half the midfield was leaking from all sides and he was unable to make himself more useful.
Lobotka: 5,5. He closes the match with good numbers in terms of successful passes, confirming a ball management that remains excellent, even touching it less. He understands little with Anguissa and the midfield collapses blow after blow under the counterattacks of Lazio, to which neither he nor the team can find a remedy.
Zielinski: 6. In the position found for him by Garcia he is always very dangerous, both at the start of the match and in the second half.
In the middle the goal, certainly lucky but born from a good play that leads to the conclusion. He loses some bloody balls, but still comes out to applause (from the 81st minute Simeon: sv).
Politano: 5,5. He sacrifices a lot, running back more than once to recover balls.
Also good going forward, entering into the action of the equaliser. In the second half, however, when it comes to attacking, the decline is evident and he is also seen little, creating almost nothing (from 75' Lindstrom: sv).
Osimhen: 5,5. At the start he seems ready for the usual match to be closed by stamping the card with a goal: the jolt in the 13th minute makes one think of a goal.
Little served as the minutes pass, he gets nervous. And the opportunities that come (few) he still fails to capitalize on, often resulting in being imprecise.
kvaratskhelia: 6. Hot foot and it shows: 3 minutes are enough for him to set the Maradona alight with one of his signature slaloms, saved almost with a sure shot.
At 20' he forces Provedel to work a miracle with a terrifying shot from outside. As the minutes pass he is less dangerous, only several conclusions but all blocked (from 66' Raspadori: 5,5).
