🔥 Great first half for Brest: 2-0 at halftime

Very difficult first half for the Azzurri, who find themselves with two goals against at halftime thanks to Ludovic Ajorque's double.

In the 28th minute, the striker scores the first goal after taking advantage of a center from Bradley Locko deflected by Amir Rrahmani. The striker leaves no option for Vanja Milinkovic-Savic. The second goal comes in the 33rd minute: center from the right by Melou and header by Ajorque.

Napoli's best chance is Kevin De Bruyne, who hits the post from a few meters. The Belgian launches himself for a low center from Giovanni Di Lorenzo, but has bad luck in the deflection.

⚽️ Napoli lights up, Lucca scores again

In the resumption, Napoli manages to change the pace from the start. The 2-1 comes in the 64th minute and is the work of Lorenzo Lucca, who scores his second consecutive goal: the striker finds himself ready in the center of the area and scores after an assist from Matteo Politano.

The team plays better also in the rest of the second half, but does not achieve the 2-2. Politano is often dangerous, De Bruyne remains very active and gives excellent indications.

Napoli adds another 90 minutes and now awaits the match against Girona, scheduled for August 9.
