Napoli had never conquered three consecutive league victories this season: the small business is by Rino Gattuso who in the last month has managed to give continuity of performance to a team that was previously schizophrenic. And if in the Cups the blues know how to find the best concentration, beat Cagliari, Brescia (away) in sequence and now Turin means having found a competitive position and now a place in Europe is no longer a chimera. Longo loses his third race in a row with passive grenades and never close to the result. To demonstrate that the problem was not Mazzarri's guide, but the evil of the Bull is deeper and more dangerous for the ranking.

HERE IS THE GREEK - Napoli in the start appears a bit distracted, even if Gattuso changes only 4 men compared to the Champions League. The Toro instead starts with his head down, immediately conquering a corner (on scissors attempted by Belotti). And just as a result of this action, an out-of-time exit from Ospina puts De Silvestri in a position to beat the goalkeeper out of the net, but he saves Manolas well. The Greek player becomes a great protagonist after Sirigu rejects well a nice left-footed shot by Milik from the edge. The round of the Napoli ball is not very fast and here in these situations the kicks placed become excellent opportunities. And so after 19 'here from the trocar that Insigne brushes a splendid punishment that Manolas nods with a perfect third time that anticipates the defenders grenade and electrocutes Sirigu. Now the game is on the rails more suited to Naples, also because Turin psychologically suffers the blow and for the rest of the time it no longer appears in the parts of Ospina, while the Azzurri play with ease. Ansaldi, in an attempt to avoid a lateral foul, makes a clumsy back pass that becomes an assist for Insigne: conclusion not up to the captain and Sirigu is saved. The goalkeeper is overcome when Lorenzinho puts a corner of Milik's head in the corner. In Toro, Rincon and Zaza's admonition, both foul (the attacker also nervous) with the referee Mariani, who also intervenes with a certain delay, should be reported.

SECOND HALF - The tea towel does not change. It is always Napoli to keep the game and to become dangerous without however finding the doubling for its own inaccuracy and for Sirigu's skill. Indeed first Nkoulou is good at countering a conclusion by Milik on a nice launch by Insigne. Then there is a large number in Lobotka's slalom that looks like this at San Paolo, but the Slovakian does not find the winning conclusion. A cross by Ansaldi is used by Ospina to warm up the gloves safely. For the Bull, a scissor kick from Zaza that touches the corner flag and an oversized left from Belotti is also worth mentioning. And so Sirigu, after miraculously saving on Di Lorenzo thrown at the net, capitulates for the second time again with the full-back colleague in the National team, able to make his mark on the second post on a beautiful cue by Mertens. In the final, with a slightly relaxed Napoli, Edera's goal arrives, marking the head undisturbed (culprit Fabian) on Ansaldi's cross. But there is no pathos: the blues control and close the trio. Now they are looking for the Coppa Italia final on Thursday: just don't lose against Inter.
