Napoli 0-2 Bologna: Champions League-chasing Rossoblu down tame hosts

Condividi

Dan Ndoye and Stefan Posch did the damage as Bologna condemned Napoli to a disappointing home defeat on Saturday in Serie A.

Napoli saw their winless run extend to five games after Bologna secured a 2-0 win with two quickfire goals at their lacklustre hosts in Serie A on Saturday.

Forward Dan Ndoye gave Bologna the lead in the ninth minute, heading home from point-blank range, before defender Stefan Posch nodded in to double the advantage three minutes later following a corner.

Napoli should have pulled one back soon after when they were awarded a penalty for Remo Freuler's foul on Victor Osimhen but Bologna goalkeeper Federico Ravaglia kept out Matteo Politano's low shot.

Bologna, at least temporarily, moved up to third on 67 points, leapfrogging Juventus – with 66 – who host relegated Salernitana on Sunday.

Napoli are eighth on 51 points as last season's Scudetto winners continue to struggle to match their heroics from the previous term.

Manager Francesco Calzona may point to Napoli's underwhelming home form, having not won any of their last five Serie A outings at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

By contrast, Bologna's 67-point haul with two games left in the league marks their best in the three-points-per-win era, since the 1963-64 season when they managed 70.
