Victor Osimhen failed to score for the first time in 8 Serie A Games as Leaders Napoli suffered a 1-0 home defeat to Lazio. It was Napoli’s first home defeat of the season.
The only goal of the match was scored by Matias Vecino in the 67th minute, with a remarkable shot from beyond the penalty area. Osimhen almost equalized but his header hit the crossbar. Lazio’s Sergej Milinkovic-Savic also hit the woodwork with a free-kick.
This was the first goal Napoli had conceded in six consecutive games. Despite this loss, Napoli is still in a commanding position, with a 17-point lead over Lazio. However, Lazio moved one point ahead of Inter and AC Milan, both of whom have a game in hand.
AC Milan will play against Fiorentina on Saturday, while Inter will host Lecce on Sunday. Napoli is striving to win their third Italian championship, with their previous success dating back to 1990.
