Napoli fully committed win the Serie A Week 6 game defeating Cagliari on Sunday 26 September 2021 at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Napoli, Italy.  The victory for Napoli means they are keeping the sole leadership while Cagliari desperately needed this away victory to dream with salvation.  Napoli win all the first six Serie A matches of the season for the second time in its history, after 2017/18, in which they achieved success in all the first eight.  Napoli have lost only one of their last 22 matches against Cagliari in Serie A (15 wins, 6 draws); however, the defeat came at home, exactly two years and one day before the date of the next match (0-1, 25 September 2019).

Napoli opening the score in the 11th minute. It is forward Victor Osimhen to defeat Cagliari goalkeeper Cragno from very close range with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Piotr Zielinski.

Captain Lorenzo Insigne giving an added punch to Napoli celebrating his 400th appearance by converting a penalty in the 57th minute.
