🏆👉 UEFA Europa League Playoffs: Result BARCELONA 1 – 1 NAPOLI, Thursday 17 February 2022

Barcelona opened the score in the 8th minute. Jordi Alba defeated Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret with a right footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Adama Traoré.

Chaos for Napoli conceding another goal. Barcelona scored in the 13th minute, Frenkie de Jong with a right-footed shot to the top right corner. The assist is by Ferran Torres.

Napoli shortened the distance for the 1-2 in the 23rd minute. Forward Lorenzo Insigne defeated Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen converting a penalty with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The penalty is conceded by ter Stegen after a foul on Victor Osimhen.

The first half ended with a late goal in the 45th minute by Gerard Piqué with a left-footed shot to the bottom right corner following a corner conceded by Mário Rui.

Whatever is happening to Napoli???? Barcelona increased the score with a 4th goal in the 59th minute. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, practically sealing the game, with a right-footed shot to the top right corner. The assist is by Adama Traoré.

Napoli with a last minute gasp scoring for the 2-4 in the 86th minute. Matteo Politano scored with a left footed shot to the bottom right corner.

✅  Stats before the game.  Including the preliminaries, only one Spanish team has won in Naples in European competitions in 10 previous (3D, 6L), Real Madrid’s 3-1 in the Champions League in March 2017.  In major UEFA competitions, Barcelona have beaten six different Italian away teams (Fiorentina, Inter, Juventus, Lazio, Milan and Udinese), more than any other formation. Napoli, like Roma, is one of the two teams that the blaugrana have faced, but not beaten. Napoli have passed the round on all eight occasions in European competitions in which they drew the first leg away, the most recent in the round of 32 of the Europa League in 2013/14 against Swansea City (0-0 in the first leg, 3-1 on the way back).   Napoli have won the last two home games in European competitions, scoring three goals in each game: the Neapolitans have not won three home European games in a row, scoring 3+ goals in each match since 2015.
