The younger Roberto was the first to score, scoring from an angle in the 30th minute. The captain of Naples had a comparison, but in the 48th minute, his accurate shot was not recognized by the video referee due to the previous offside. He only survived after an hour of play, when he knocked out his opponent with a handle in front of the lime and leveled it with a crossbar. Andrea Petagna decided to win Naples in the 67th minute.
Cagliari defeated another newcomer from Crotone 4: 2 in a goal shootout. Five goals were scored in the first half, and the home team was helped by a 3: 2 lead in the exclusion of midfielder Lucy Cigarini just after the break.
It will be played again without spectators
On Sunday, information was published that due to the worsening epidemiological situation, football will be played in Italy again from Monday without any spectators. The government has tightened the existing measures so that outdoor professional sports competitions will be allowed only with the exclusion of fans. The ban on sports events in the country will last at least a month and is part of a package of regulations affecting, among other things, culture and gastronomy, which has required a sharp increase in cases in the country.
So far, the number of spectators in the auditoriums has been limited to 1,000 people. A total ban on the presence of fans in Italy was already in place last season after the coronavirus break.
Italy was one of the most affected countries in the world at the beginning of the pandemic and is now facing another wave. On Saturday, a record 19,644 confirmed cases of infection occurred in the last 24 hours. Since the beginning of the covid-19 epidemic, at least 504,509 people have been infected in a country of 60 million people, of whom 37,210 have died.
