Noa Lang started Napoli's comeback: Not enough to win

Napoli, struggling for the top of the Italian Serie A, faced Verona at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. The hosts couldn't prevent Martin Frese's goal in the 16th minute and Orban's penalty in the 27th minute to close the first half 2-0 down.

Napoli played with more pressure in the second half. In the 54th minute, from the corner kick, Noa Lang sent the ball into the penalty area and McTominay sent it into the net to make the score 2-1. In the 82nd minute, this time Di Lorenzo came on the scene and the score was leveled. There were no more goals in the remaining minutes and the teams left the field with one point each.

While both of Napoli's goals were ruled out by VAR, Victor Nelsson, on loan from Galatasaray to Verona, came into the game in the 78th minute instead of Bradaric.
