Naples falls to Udine, decides a magic of Ekkelenkamp

UDINE (ITALPRESS) – After the ko in the Champions League against Benfica, a Naples energy drain also loses at Bluenergy Stadium against a great Udinese. Runjaic boys are 1-0, thanks to a pearl of Ekkelenkamp in the second half. The Bianconeri had to sweat the goal: the Var, in fact, cancelled the networks of Davis and Zaniolo. It’s not enough for a hearty ending to Count’s team to avoid defeat. The accident emergency continues in Naples with Conte forced to deploy the same eleven holder for the third consecutive race. Not if even Udinese passes it so much better, given the contemporary absences on the lane mancina of Kamara and Zemura and Atta as a left wing. Among the main innovations of formation of Runjaic figure Bertola put to the whole band. The ex Spezia is immediately decisive to the 10′, when, on the cross tread of Spinazzola, it manages to anticipate Lang, who already tasted the goal to empty door. The Dutch wing tries again on the next corner football, but kicks high. After the initial folates of Naples, Udinese begins to gain field and the game rebalances. At 30′ Milinkovic heats the gloves, neutralizing the shot from the limit of Ekkelenkamp.

In the recovery the ferocious pressure of the friulani and a Zaniolo simply incontensible put Naples in great difficulty. At 53′ the Var denies the joy of goal to Davis: after Milinkovic’s central rebuttal on Bertola’s shooting, the English striker is pinched in a playback after he has scored in tap-in. The Var is still the protagonist at 68′, when Sozza is recalled to the monitor after the marking of Zaniolo. The Udinese will thus be seen to cancel the second network of the afternoon, following a foulous recovery of Karlstrom on the newborn Lobotka. In the middle there was also a cross struck by Piotrowski. Naples, however, is tired, under rhythm and loses all duels in the middle of the field. Bad luck does not discourage the hosts who continue to attack and who in the end find the so-called goal to 73′. The 1-0 is made by Ekkelenkamp, author of the limit of a splendid right-round that runs under the intersection. In the final Conte throws in the mix also the former Lucca and, precisely from its recovery, Naples goes one step from the peer. The error of Hojlund at 88′ is clamorous with the Danish who arrives uncoordinated on the ball and sends it high from less than a meter. At 93′ there is also room for an outside pole hit by Lucca in split.
