Napoli’s first friendly match in Trentino
Napoli’s first match in Trentino was a friendly against Arezzo.
In the first half, Lorenzo Lucca came close to scoring, nearly hitting the goalpost with a diagonal shot. Then Arezzo’s Emiliano Pattarello scored a penalty.
In the second half, Napoli constantly applied pressure, with David Neres coming close to scoring the equaliser three times, once even striking the post with a diagonal shot. Towards the end of the match, Arezzo scored their second goal on the counter with Muhamed Varela.
Now Napoli have a second friendly match coming up on Saturday against Catanzaro.
