The game against the French team ended 2-1. Ajorque scored a double, while Lorenzo Lucca scored for Napoli.
🔥 Strong first half from Brest: 2-0 at halftime
A very difficult first half for the Azzurri, who trailed by two goals at halftime, thanks to Ludovic Ajorque's double pack.
In the 28th minute, the striker scored the first goal, utilizing a cross from Bradley Locko that was deflected by Amir Rrahmani. Milinkovic-Savic had no chance to defend. The second goal fell in the 33rd minute: a cross from the right side by Melou and a successful header from Ajorque.
Napoli's best chance was Kevin De Bruyne, who only hit the post from a few meters out. The Belgian finished after a flat cross from Giovanni Di Lorenzo, but was unlucky with the finish.
⚽️ Napoli becomes more dangerous – Lucca scores again
In the second half, Napoli immediately managed to increase the tempo. The 2-1 score came in the 64th minute through Lorenzo Lucca, who thus scored his second goal in a row: he was in the right position in the penalty area and converted after an assist from Matteo Politano.
Also in the rest of the second half, Napoli played better, but could not achieve a tie. Politano remained frequently dangerous, and Kevin De Bruyne also showed a decent performance.
After this friendly match defeat, SSC Napoli will continue against last season's Champions League participant, FC Girona, on 08/09.
