In the 7th minute, Neres made a counter-attack down the right and crossed into the box, where Rasmus Hoylen slid in to give Napoli the lead.

In the first minute of first-half stoppage time, Noah Lang took a corner from the left, and McTominay's header inside the penalty area hit the left post.

Just four minutes into the second half, Hoylen surged halfway into the penalty area, but his shot was saved by Di Gregorio. In the 55th minute, Napoli won a free kick just outside the penalty area, and McTominay's low shot into the bottom right corner nearly found the back of the net.

In the 59th minute, Juventus launched a quick counter-attack, culminating in a cross from Weston McKennie that allowed Kelnan Yildez to slot the ball into the net. The two sides were now level on the score, but Napoli sealed the victory in the 78th minute when McKennie's header clearance inadvertently gifted Hoylen an own goal, who then headed home his second goal of the match.

Neither side managed to score again. At the final whistle, Napoli won by one goal at home. Juventus, after this match, have a record of 6 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses, accumulating 23 points and ranking seventh in Serie A.
