NAPOLI (ITALPRESS) – The first phase of the Naples adventure in this Champions League ends. The champions of Italy surrender to Chelsea, which at ‘Maradonà wins 3-2 and condemns the hosts to eliminate. It opens the markings a rigor of Fernandez, then Vergara and Hojlund turn it before the interval. In the film, the doublet of Joao Pedro closes the qualifying speeches of the team. The emergency for Conte continues, waiting to find Lukaku in full form Vergara and Elmas behind Hojlund. Ready and Chelsea brings a lot of players into the opponent’s half-field. The hosts try to take advantage of it by sharing in speed, but at 17′ is Chelsea, on the development of a punishment, to earn a penalty: punishment of James, arm of Juan Jesus and Turpin indicating the floppy. Enzo Fernandez, who with a right angled hole Meret, kicks eleven metres. The reaction of Naples is immediate and 33′, on a recovery of Olivera, comes the same blue. Olivera’s dry advance on Caicedo and ball that arrives between the feet of Vergara 25 meters from the door: the three-year-old rocker points the area, jumps two opponents with a magic and transfixes Sanchez for the 1-1. The siege of Naples does not flatten and ten minutes later here is the overtaking: Olivera’s overlap served by Elmas, cross on the first pole where Hojlund takes advantage of the ball and finds the 2-1, result with which you get to the range. Rosenior tries to move his own, first with Palmer’s insertion at the beginning of recovery, then with two other changes. Palmer, at 61’, receives between the lines and finds Joao Pedro, who from the left is accented and finds the 2-2 with a cannon of mancino under the crossroads of the poles. The result serves little to Naples, but the danger of the first 45 minutes is only a memory, because in the second half Chelsea risks much less. Conte chooses to play everything for everything and sends Lukaku into the last quarter of an hour, but it is at that time that the Londoners freeze the ‘Maradonà. Joao Pedro triangulates with Palmer, flying to the door. Beukema tries to contain it, but the Brazilian, entered the area, kicks at the right time and signs 3-2. This time Naples accuses the disadvantage, tries to respond but surrenders to the Blues. Undeserved defeat for the team of Conte, who salutes the Champions: the blues are now running only in the championship, where Inter leads the ranking to +9.– Photo Ipa Agency –(ITALPRESS).
