You don’t have to hit the target to win. This was the assumption made by Spezia, who took the lead in the 37th minute of the match against Napoli after a self-kill by Juan Jesus. The team led by pressed in regularly, but that was not enough to beat Ivan Provedel. Thus, both clubs from Milan took advantage of Napoli’s mishap and jumped the team from the south of Italy in the table. He played 70 minutes, and 90 minutes – and Jakub Kiwior.
Italians are satisfied with the game of Jakub Kiwior against Napoli. “He worked like an engine”
Jakub Kiwior ran out of Spezia for the game against Napoli as a defensive midfielder, just ahead of the three center-backs. This, however, was not a problem for him, and he felt very comfortable in the second line. The Italian media also rated the performance in a similar way. “The Polish footballer was born a defender and you can see it. But in the center of the field he was always the first to play”, writes “La Gazzetta dello Sport”, which awarded Kiwior with a 7/10 score (the highest in the team of visitors).

The rest of the Italian journalists were a bit more stringent in their judgments for. “It worked like an engine in the middle of the field and successfully supported Spezia’s defense” – we read in the ratings of the portal calciomercato.it, which gave Kiwior a 6.5. “He was a real mainstay for the defense, which he helped a lot in stopping the constant raids of players” – this is the argumentation of the Tuttomercatówb.com portal.
Eurosport branch, in turn, noticed that Kiwior was very careful not to catch a stupid yellow card. The Pole was cautioned in this way by the referee in the 48th minute for a foul on the opponent. “Kiwior helped his teammates in doubling the opponent and ran a lot of kilometers. In addition, he did not allow the referee to reprimand him again” – journalists write. Jakub Kiwior has so far played in five matches in all competitions and accumulated 478 minutes.
