Zieliñski confirms the great form. The assistance of a Pole and the victory of Napoli in a hit

A few days ago, it seemed that Piotr Zieliński would not play in Napoli’s last matches in 2021. The midfielder of the Polish national team after 22 minutes left the field in the match against Empoli (0: 1) due to breathing problems. The club then announced that Zieliński was struggling with tracheitis. In the end, the health situation of the midfielder of the team led by Luciano Spalletti improved so much that Zieliński came out in the basic squad for the match against Milan.

Napoli better than Milan in a hit, but there was no shortage of controversy. Milan was deceived?

Napoli was definitely more active in the first minutes of the match against Milan. The team from Campania scored a corner in the fifth minute, and Piotr Zieliński approached the ball. A midfielder crossed the ball into the penalty area towards Eljif Elmas as the Macedonian took advantage of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s indecision to a side with Sandro Tonali, defeating Mike Maignan. Thus, Zieliński recorded his sixth assist in the season.

The farther into the match, the more active Milan was. In the first half, Alessandro Florenzi had the best opportunity, but he did not take advantage of the situation. In the second part of the game the initiative was taken over by the team led by Stefan Pioli, but for a long time they were unable to create many situations. Junior Messias had a great opportunity, but his shot landed above the bar. Milan had by far the best opportunity in overtime.

There was a great deal of confusion in Napoli’s penalty area, and Franck Kessie made the best of the confusion by defeating David Ospina. After the referee’s decision in cooperation with the VAR system, the midfielder’s hit was canceled. Previously, Olivier Giroud was in an offside position, lying on the ground and making a move to the ball, absorbing Juan Jesus’ attention. Nevertheless, it can be expected that after the game there will be huge discussions about the referee’s decision. This result is good news for Inter Milan, who are four points ahead of Napoli and Milan.
