Review, match Napoli vs Cremonese: Defeat on away land
Napoli is making the championship race in Serie A 2022/2023 more boring than ever. Although this is only round 22, the Southern team has created a 13-point gap more than the closest chasing team, Inter Milan. Compared to defending champion AC Milan, this difference is up to 18 points.
In the 21st round last weekend, Napoli beat Spezia 3-0 right on the opponent's field. This is the 5th triumph in a row and the 18th since the beginning of the tournament for teachers and students Luciano Spalletti. Except for Inter Milan, rivals like AS Roma, Juventus, Atalanta, or Lazio all fell to their knees before Napoli's unrivaled attacking power.
Of course, a very humble team like Cremonese can hardly stop Gli Azzurri. In the first leg, Cremonese, despite having a home advantage, was still beaten by Napoli with a score of 4-1. At the moment, coach Davide Ballardini's team is at the bottom of the table with 8 points, 10 points less than the nearest relegation position.
In the previous round, Cremonese had their 15th defeat since the beginning of the tournament when they were knocked out 2-0 by Lecce. With morale going down, and facing an opponent too strong, Cremonese could hardly avoid defeat.
