Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Napoli, 1st position with 54 points and a positive goal difference of +22
Udinese, 10th position with 29 points and a negative goal difference of -8

What a disappointment for Napoli! Their goal was to secure a victory in the Serie A Week 24 match against Udinese on Sunday, February 9, 2025, at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples, Italy. However, Udinese put up a valiant effort and managed to hold Napoli to a 1-1 draw. Napoli now sits at 55 points, closely followed by Inter with 51 points, who will face Fiorentina on Monday. Udinese has reached 30 points.

This was certainly a missed chance for Conte’s squad, as they couldn’t extend their lead at the top of the table. The Friulians showcased their determination, coming to Maradona ready to compete and earn points.

Napoli’s coach, Antonio Conte, was honored with the Philadelphia Coach of the Month award prior to the match. This recognition is certainly well-deserved, as he has led Napoli to maintain a strong position at the top of the league this season.

. In the 37th minute, Napoli took the lead. Scott McTominay scored with a header from close range thanks to an assist from Matteo Politano, who delivered a cross following a corner conceded by Jurgen Ekkelenkamp. Politano’s ball to the far post set up the perfect opportunity for the former United player to score.

✈️ It’s Scott McTominay Airways! Let’s go, Scott! Jump as high as you can… take flight… and kaboom! A stunning headed goal!!!

Udinese leveled the score at 1-1 in the 40th minute when Jurgen Ekkelenkamp found the back of the net with a right-footed shot into the bottom left corner, assisted by Jesper Karlström.

In the 87th minute, Noah Okafor makes his first appearance for Napoli, coming on for David Neres.
