Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Napoli, 2nd position with 56 points and a positive goal difference of +22
Como, 13th position with 25 points and a negative goal difference of -10

Como won the Serie A Week 26 match on Sunday, February 23, 2025, at the Giuseppe Sinigaglia Stadium in Como, Italy.  What a significant setback for Napoli! Meanwhile, Como celebrates a remarkable victory. Napoli has suffered a double blow, losing their top spot and dropping to second place with 56 points. Inter now stands alone at the top with 57 points.

In short, David has triumphed over Goliath. Against all expectations, Como has secured this important win. Diao’s goal, set up by Nico Paz in the 77th minute, proved to be the game-winner. Earlier, the Azzurri missed a golden opportunity with McTominay, who was brilliantly denied by Butez, and another chance involving Politano and Anguissa. However, the Larian team was more effective and capitalized on their moment, achieving a stunning victory.

Assane Diao has reached a remarkable milestone as the youngest player to tally more than five goals, scoring five for Como and one for Real Betis. He was born in September 2005.

Did you know? Cesc Fàbregas played under Antonio Conte at Chelsea for two seasons, from 2016/17 to 2017/18. He appeared 86 times and scored 10 goals in all competitions. Notably, he was the highest-scoring midfielder for the Blues in both league and cup games during those two years.

Let’s roll the ball…

In the 7th minute, Como took the lead with an own goal. Amir Rrahmani accidentally turned Politano’s throw-in into his own net, not realizing that goalkeeper Meret was out of position, allowing the ball to roll in.

Napoli leveled the score at 1-1 in the 17th minute. Giacomo Raspadori found the net with a right-footed shot aimed at the center. Kempf was caught off guard by Da Cunha’s back pass, allowing Raspadori to seize the opportunity, steal the ball, and score with a low shot to the right past Butez.

Como regained the advantage in the 77th minute when Assane Diao found the net with a precise right-footed shot into the bottom left corner. Nico Paz provided the assist, having spotted Diao making a run from his position in the attacking midfield. Diao executed a perfect stop before unleashing a low shot that Meret couldn’t stop.

✅    Stats before the game:

Como has managed to secure just one victory (2-1 at home, thanks to a double from Renato Cattaneo on November 23, 1952) out of their 23 Serie A encounters with Napoli, recording four draws and suffering 18 losses. They have also kept only one clean sheet in this matchup, which was a 0-0 draw on November 8, 1987.

Napoli is currently on a streak of three consecutive draws in Serie A, facing Roma, Udinese, and Lazio. They haven’t experienced four straight draws in the league for over a decade, with the last occurrence happening between February and March 2013, when they had a series of four draws, including two against Udinese and Lazio.

Napoli has struggled to find a win in their last three matches (D3). The last team to go several matchdays in a row as league leaders without a win in Serie A was Juventus during the final five rounds of the 2018/19 season, where they drew three and lost two, although they were already confirmed champions.
