🏆👉   Napoli already qualified to the Round of 16 with full 15 points after defeating Rangers. Napoli win the Champions League Matchday 5 game keeping a perfect score on Wednesday 26 October 2022 at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Napoli, Italy.  Napoli have won all five games of this Champions League and become the first Italian team to squeeze five wins in the first five matches of a single edition since Juventus in 2004-05.

Napoli and Liverpool will play for first place in the last round in the direct clash of Anfield. Napoli, however, have the advantage in goal difference and even with a defeat with a difference of three goals they would remain in first place.    Double for Simeone in the first half, in the second half the Neapolitans touched the third goal on several occasions until they found it, the 100 in the Champions League, with Leo Östigard.

Napoli are in the 1st position with 15 points

Napoli opened the score in the 11th minute. Argentinean forward Giovanni Simeone defeated Rangers goalkeeper with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Giovanni Di Lorenzo.

The good moment is on for Simeone scoring a brace in the 116th minute! Giovanni scored with a headed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Mário Rui.

In the 80th minute, Leo Östigard scored with a headed shot to the bottom right corner following a corner conceded by Allan McGregor. The assist is by Giacomo Raspadori.

✅ Stats before the game: The only European precedent between Napoli and Rangers was the one played in the second round of this Champions League: a 3-0 victory for the Neapolitans at Ibrox. Considering all the European competitions, Rangers have won only one of the 12 away games played in Italy (2N, 9P), namely the one 3-2, against Livorno, in the UEFA Cup, in 2006, thanks to goals from Charlie Adam, Kris Boyd and Nacho Novo. British teams have so far won only two of the 15 away games played against Napoli in a European competition (2N, 11P). The only English team to snatch the success (4-2), in the home of the Neapolitans, in the Champions League, was Manchester City, in November 2017.

🏆👉 Lineup NAPOLI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Ostigard, Kim, Mario Rui; Ndombele, Lobotka, Elmas; Politano, Simeone, Raspadori.

🏆👉 Lineup RANGERS (4-2-3-1): McGregor – Tavernier, King, Davies, Yilmaz – Lundstram, Sands – Tillman, Wright, Kent – Morelos.
