Napoli  win the Europa League Group Stage Group C Matchday 3 game against Legia Warszawa on Thursday 21 October 2021 at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Napoli, Italy .  The mission was to win and they did.  Napoli reaching 4 points are in the 2nd position followed by Leicester City with 4 points too.  The first position is for Legia Warszawa with 6 points.

Napoli and Legia Warsaw met in the group stage of the Europa League 2015-16, the Neapolitans won both matches – Napoli qualified as first of the group with six wins out of six, while Legia Warsaw finished last with just four points. Napoli have won their last three games against Polish sides in European competitions, the latest success coming against Legia Warsaw in December 2015 – Nathaniel Chalobah scored his only goal for Napoli in that game.  Legia Warsaw have never won away against Italian teams in European competitions (2N, 6P), keeping clean sheets only once against Inter in 1985 in the UEFA Cup.

Victor Osimhen just proving to be a decisive player for @en_sscnapoli. He is the second Napoli’s player to have scored in each of his first three seasonal games in European competitions after forward Dries Mertens in 2015/16. @NGSuperEagles @victorosimhen9 @EaglesTrackerNG pic.twitter.com/sb8RGagwJj
